Sigh, indeed.  I've been through this rather often myself.  Yes,
they *called* themselves "socialist", but that doesn't mean they were.
Are the "Scientific Creationists" scientific because they say so?
Socialists believe in state control of the means of production.
The Nazis never believed this, and of course, not only left the
capitalists' empires untouched, but even provided them slave labor.
It was rich industrialists like Fritz Thissen and I.G. Farben who
bankrolled the Nazi party through its leaner years.  Some of
them have been doing uninterrupted "business as usual" even up to
this day.
