BTW many of those points were never enacted. Does that mean Lenin wasn't a socialist? Because HE didn't enact all those points either. Nor did his successor, Stalin. Hitler did his d**dest to convince the "right" sector of the electorate his party would enact them. Not that this was entirely new in Germany. Bismarck started socialism there to head off the REAL socialists. It's called "co-opting". I'm sure you've heard of it. May even accused others of it. What Hitler is noted for is his strong demand for German nationalism/patriotism, racial purity, a strong military; his desire to take Germany back to a time when it was a dominant power under the Prussians, who were more righties.....all elements of the right. Does this explain why the Soviet Union grabbed eastern Europe? Or had a strong military? Because they were righties? How about China and its land grabs, both done and intended? You can twist and lie all you want but you can't escape Hitler's self-proclaimed socialism. You DO know what "Nazi" stands for, right?
