Was Hitler a Socialist?

You're the most right person in this thread. Except me, of course. But you're very close.

Everyone just wants to assign him to their enemy so they can say "We can't follow (insert), he's just like Hitler! The next Hitler won't be Hitler, anyway, he'll be something else entirely. You don't have to believe in the master Aryan race to kill a crap load of people and try and take over the world.

There's a good reason why SpokenTruth gets ignored. There's nothing baseless about aligning Hitler with the far-right, because his nationalism and push towards one simple answer for all kinds of problems is exactly what the far-right stands for. Of course the modern far-right won't be doing exactly the same things that Hitler did, but the underlying principles are the same.

Brexit is a good of example of modern far-right thinking where nationalism combined with one simple answer now leaves people dumbfounded why they voted for a Brexit in the first place. Brexit was sold to them as something that would improve their quality of life, because EU membership of the UK was supposedly one big disadvantage.

Aligning Hitler with the far-right is not a statement that the far-left are the good guys, it's merely performing a logical analysis of history.

There is a lot of difference between the "far right" and Hitler. Let me know when the far right wants to confiscate all the guns.

Does anyone on the "right" even consider them the "far/alt right"? Just wondering what gives them that label.
