    Nazi doesn’t mean national socialist, as I said it’s literally just the first 4 letters, a shorthand a nickname, American version for Republicans would be Repu/Repus.

    Lots of people I have seen that think it’s Nazi because the Sozialistische has the Zi, it’s nonsense, Nazional is how germans pronounce National, hence it’s shortened to Nazi.

        You are confusing National Socialism with Leftist-Nationalism

        The reason Hitler added Social to their party name was because it was political suicide not to, not because they where socialists.

      I call them Repubs at this point because they don’t want to say things like “Democratic politicians” opting instead for “Democrat politicians” because they’re worried democratic sounds too good.

      I think republican sounds too good. They don’t want a republic, they want a tyrant.
