"If its just a meaningless label, why argue about it? Why the need to defend a meaningless label from association with Hitler?"

That is what I am trying to figure out. You have declared it meaningless. Yet, it is important to you to label the Nazis with it.

That seems odd.

"I think perhaps you have shifted your position."

No I haven't.

"You don't now deny that Hitler called and considered himself a socialist."

I never denied he called himself a socialist. I don't think he considered himself as such because he never acted that way.

"I didn't. I think I got into the conversation when the defenders of socialism began calling Hitler a "devout Christian"."

But, he labeled himself one. Given that your argument is that he was a socialist because he labeled himself as such, why doesn't it apply here?
