Who IS Hitler?
It would be funny, but it's true. But many people don't know these facts. Thank you for sharing this.

One small point: Fascism is not Nazism. Fascism is nation based, Nazism is race based. Fascism was the creation of Mussolini, who dreamed of restoring Italy to the glory days of Rome. Hitler sought racial purity, based on evolutionary theory. This gave rise to the idea of the Aryan "master race".Who IS Hitler?

It may escape some people, but Nazi Germany was socialist. The point that the video makes about modern socialism in the West is well made.
Nazi and Fascist are used interchangeably these days. And yes, it is usually an insult. The modern definition is "Nazi" - anyone with conservative views. Fascist - anyone with conservative views. Strictly speaking, anyone who is patriotic could be called a fascist. The real irony is that Nazism was in reality socialist, as the "Bee" points out. Try telling that to leftists. Watch them explode.Those are important distinctions to make.
Socialism (many kinds) are characterized by collectivist systems.
Fascism is more of a big centralized government with a dictator.
The two in practice did overlap in that one point it seems. But then there are few true socialist systems in practice except for the small ones like Pennsylvania Dutch Mennonite communities and Bruderhoffs. Israel had their own communal system for a few decades too.
I think the governmental socialists are really oligarchies controlled by wealthy families who keep the peasants poor. The exception might be Russia at this time. I heard that they have a large middle class now.
The way any of these terms are used today is more like an overused cuss word by the libs.
Strictly speaking, anyone who is patriotic could be called a fascist.
strictly speaking is "Make America Great Again" fascist or patriotic?I wouldn't say "strictly speaking." I'd say anyone who doesn't have a clue might think that way.

So the rounding up Jews and putting them into the Ghetto was not due to ideology?Basic elements of the capitalist system remained in place, the government intervened in the economy to prepare for war, not due to ideology.

It depends on how you interpret Prepare for war as to whether or not gathering Jews into the Ghettos was part of the economy or simply part of the plan for the economy.You can have it mean whatever you prefer.![]()
