The idea that the Nazis were socialists is transparently absurd. Unfortunately, it’s also an idea that prominent figures on the Right like Sen. Rand Paul have taken up. So let’s all say it together now: no, the Nazis were not socialists. They were, in fact, committed anti-socialists.
No, the Nazis Were Not Socialists
Thousands of people have gathered in southern Austria to commemorate Croatian fascists and civilians who were killed at the tail end of World War II.
Held annually for more than three decades, Saturday’s event in Bleiburg was marked to mourn the killing of civilians and members of the Croatian Ustasa, a fascist group that controlled the Nazi-aligned Independent Croatian State (NDH), and others in May 1945 by Yugoslav Partisans.
Estimates of the total number of people killed vary widely, with some reaching the tens of thousands.

A Victorian Liberal Party campaigner who has worked in Geelong has resigned from the party amid allegations he was involved in the neo-Nazi movement.
Scott Harrison has been seen in photographs campaigning with the Liberal candidate for Lara, near Geelong, Tony McManus, and the Liberal candidate for Bellarine, Ron Nelson.
Fairfax Media has reported that Mr Harrison was a former prominent member of the white supremacist group Church of Creativity.
In a statement, Liberal state director Damien Mantach said the party was not aware of Mr Harrison’s previous connections.
“His comments are unacceptable and do not reflect the views of the Liberal Party,” he said.
“He has now resigned from the party, effective immediately.”
Victorian Premier Denis Napthine said he welcomed news that Mr Harrison had resigned.
“He has never been a part of my team and has never worked for the Coalition Government,” he said in a statement.
“There is absolutely no place in society for these type of comments.”
The ABC has attempted to contact Mr Harrison.
A spokesman for the Liberal MP for Corangamite, Sarah Henderson, would not confirm what role Mr Harrison played in her 2013 federal election campaign.
Mr Nelson and Mr McManus have not return calls from the ABC.
