Gotta disagree. Wiemar Republic was Democratic Socialism, true, but Fascisim (Nazi's and old boy Adolf) is Far right wing, not left wing. Fascism is the polar opposite to Socialism.

Socialism -- For the Motherland!! (Keep us, which I am the strongest member) in power.
Fascism also has another terrible trait, the racial purity you mentioned. Socialism has no such policy. Everyone in Socialism is killed equally from within the Collective. Their hatred was for individual IDEALS. Currently the US is closer to Fascist Doctrine than we are Socialist Doctrine thanks to W, Dick, Gonzales, and the (R) majority in the Supreme Court.

Not my term for that, the term Nazi was a shortened version of Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei (NSDAP). It's ironic, really, that they both play on the passions of the people, and in both of them tyranny inevitably comes into play. I use the term National Socialism, because it's a bit more subtle than hitting people between the eyes with what has come to be known as 'Godwin's Law'.
