I think my problem with the word "Nazis" is that the Nationalsosialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei (NDAP) operated in WWII Germany and don't exist anymore. Used outside of that context, it takes on a figurative meaning for me, like the soup Nazi from Seinfeld, or Internet grammar Nazis. I was under the impression that it's now being used as a label for all Trump voters, but what you mean to say is "neo-Nazis". That's the established term, at least here in Europe.
@thor The Nazis were socialists. So, we'll need to make sure we don't apply the term to free-market, capitalists, like most of the left likes to do. One must be on the left to be a true Nazi/neo-Nazi.
@Combaticus They weren't any more socialist than much of Europe is today, with its welfare systems and big government. In Europe, the "socialist" part of the name isn't taken seriously, and it's even argued that they were never true socialists; merely populists who wanted to exploit the worker's movement.
@Combaticus Free market capitalism? If anything, the Nazis didn't have terribly strong opinions on it. They took over the industry for the war effort, but so did the United States. Neo-Nazis aren't typically defined by their fiscal stance, but rather by their racism and violence, or that's how the term is used here in Europe. There are Neo-Nazis who vote for right wing populist parties, but those parties don't tend to have very capitalistic policies.
@thor Actually, you're not quite correct on this point. The Nazis ran a corporatist economy which was not free market and leveraged the economy to enforce their ideology and cement their totalitarian control over the country. You see the same thing in the US and Europe where the government uses companies to roll out legislation that adheres to the left's agenda, rewarding large corps for complying and making it next to impossible for anyone to resist. 1/2
@Combaticus More specifically: Populist parties in Europe are generally more about cutting taxes for the working class, removing prohibitions and maintaining existing benefits than anything else. If your interests are in business, you're better off voting on one of the traditional Bourgeois parties.
