Go ahead. Cite a source. I'm waiting. Have been for days. I'm open to anything substantive you have to say--anything SUPPORTED. So far it's utterly unsupported, and any time somebody says, "Well, gee, otto, that's not what most people think", you blink your doe eyes and ask them to explain, as if THEIR assertion is the one that's out of nowhere.
Please explain how they WERE socialists. Something beyond their name, please.

First of all, your "everyone knows" premis is empty. What have you brought to the conversation?
What kind of source do you need? Just look up references to socialism and see if there are no commonalties. You've also left out the other component of nationalism. The Nazis where also a flavor of fascism. This can be complicated. It's okay to be frustrated...especially if you're beliefs are based in herd-mentalty premis.
Ease up... we're just having converation.
