    Interestingly enough that is an American thing I believe. In Germany no one thinks the Nazis were socialists.

          Not the person you’re talking to but I have, in fact, talked to actual Kartoffel-Germans who’d straight up swallowed the American propaganda and insisted on the “Sozialisten” part being the important one. They’re few and far in between because our schools aren’t complete failures but they do exist.

        Just ask them how come you can find plenty of swastikas at Trump rallies, plenty of merchants selling them too, but none of either at Democratic rallies?

        Are the communists supporting the Republicans?

        Are the Republicans communists?

        Finally why is the person you’re talking to aligning themselves with communist sympathisers?
