It is interesting how the socialists right-wing fascists used that principle eighty years ago in Germany and still use it today --[...] Liberals right-wing fascists never seem to have any new ideas.

fixed it for ya

Nazi = "National Socialist Democratic Worker's Party" (Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei)

We have officially gotten far afield of the Duck Dynasty controversy.

This is a misunderstanding of 1930s-era semantics.

'Socialist' was to 1930s German politics what 'Change' was to American politics at the tail-end of the last decade. A meaningless buzzword with universally positive connotations in the eyes of the populace.

Socialists of the day would attest, that there was absolutely nothing at all ‘socialist’ about the Nazis beyond the word being used in the title of the Nazi party; indeed, it was socialists in the main with whom Hitler’s Brownshirts battled in the streets of Germany prior to Hitler becoming Chancellor in 1933 and rounding up and execution of most of the socialists in Germany.

In the early days, Germans believed that the word ‘socialist’ in the Nazi party’s name actually did mean that Hitler’s party had socialist leanings and for a while Hitler was quite happy to allow the myth to continue as he built up the party’s numbers and strength using its following to give the party an air of popularity.

Nazism was at its core, hierarchical, whereas the ideological root of socialism was equality.

The National Socialist Movement was distorted into a "Native National Socialist Movement" thinking that national socialism was the goal for the natives of Germany (Aryan Nation). While the international socialists view all people of all faiths and races as equal and advocates the elimination of borders that keep us separated. That is why the international socialists (USSR) fought against the national socialists (Nazis). These two groups are fundamentally opposed to each other. To associate the two together is to equivocate based on name and it is a fallacy because though the name is similar, the philosophy is contradictory to each other.
