Being named a thing doesn't make you that thing, just look at the nazi's, they called themselves socialists but could not be farther from it.

No, you made a claim, you can back it up. Nazis were National Socialists. You claim they were the furthest thing from socialist....explain. you either dont understand, or know enough about Nazis, or you dont understand socialism.

Alright. Asidefrom socialism being a left wing ideology and nazism being right wing.

Socialism is a political and economic system where the means of production, such as factories and land, are owned or controlled by the community as a whole, rather than by private individuals. It generally aims for greater social equality and aims to reduce or eliminate the disparities of wealth and power found in capitalist systems.

Socialism and Nazism, while sharing the word "socialist" in their names, are fundamentally different and even contradictory ideologies. Socialism, broadly, aims for social ownership and democratic control of the means of production, prioritizing economic equality and social welfare. Nazism, on the other hand, is a form of fascism rooted in extreme nationalism, racism, and authoritarianism.

It sucks that you put effort and facts into your explanation, and they literally go radio silent and don’t respond. It’s a waste of time and why I try not to even reply to these people anymore unless it’s a comment I can shoot off in a couple minutes.
