A person wrote to me to argue that the National Socialist German Workers' Party was not socialist.  The following is my response:
     Your effort to defend and rehabilitate the National Socialist German Workers' Party by asserting that they are not socialist is bizarre.  Granted, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics murdered more people (62 million deaths, 1917-'87) and the People's Republic of China murdered more people (35 million, 1949-'87) than did the  the National Socialist German Workers' Party (21 million, 1933-'45), however that does not make the latter "not socialist" simply because of the lesser numbers killed, nor does it exclude the latter from the trio of socialist atrocities at http://rexcurry.net/socialists.jpg
