I wrote this in another comment: > And last but not least: Hitler himself frequently said and wrote that he is a Socialist. Not an International Socialist like the Soviet Union but a National Socialist. International Socialism was the Soviets. By definition an international variant must be less racist and it's not surprising that a National variant was racist. But the economy had similarities, it was controlled almost completely by the government. (to a greater extent in the Soviet Union than by the Nazis, but the Nazi economy certainly was no free market economy)
