Snowflake...Hitler didn't ban the NAZI party (which was the National Socialists). Don't try to cover for Pogo and his astounding fuck up.
The german social democrat party were anti-capitalist marxists who advocated for "seizing the means of production". That's pure, unadulterated socialism. The Nazis didn't much care for capitalism either but they weren't socialists. They hated socialists. Those are just the facts, sorry.
They did not "hate socialists". They hated people who were competing with them for power. That they were socialists just happened to be a coincidence.
Nazis and their socialist rivals had some ideas in common, I've already said as much. "right wing" traditionalism and some "left wing" social policies. One of the biggest differences is that the Nazis did not believe in equality, obviously. Unlike the socialists, they weren't trying to reshape humanity into an grey, formless "classless" society where everyone is the same, no. They were concerned about the well being of Germans because to them, Germans were better than everyone else.
If your hairsplitting, word-parsing attempts at justification make you feel better, then you go on with your bad self. Just so you understand that you're neither convincing nor impressing anyone else.
Saying that the Nazis were not socialists because they did not believe in the foundational principal of socialism is NOT splitting hairs. If you want to play this stupid game of pin the hitler on your political rivals then go ahead but I think it's idiotic.
If YOU want to play this stupid game of "If I divert with enough excuses, I never have to actually answer for anything real", be my guest, but I think YOU are idiotic.
