Aren't Nationalism and Socialism contradictory? I mean in one the people serve the State while in the other the State serves the people. Not as dumb as Anarcho Capitalism, but still silly.

Yes. Fools will tell you the Nazis were socialists, people of a normal intelligence will tell you that calling yourself a duck does not make you a duck.

"The full name of the Nazi Party was Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei (German for 'National Socialist German Workers' Party')"

Gee, I wonder how anyone could possibly come to that conclusion?

Yeah it’s like thinking the “Democratic peoples Republic of Korea” is somehow democratic.

I understood what you meant. I just don't agree that coming to this conclusion makes somebody a fool given the context.

Because it means they don't know anything but have an opinion anyways.
