Hitler was a Socialist...I know, I've heard it over and over and over and over and over and...

well...you get the idea.

Ask Ernst Roehm how that little Socialist experiment worked out.

I believe you mean Strasser.

No, Roehm.  Anything resembling Socialism in the National Socialist Party was dispatched with Roehm on the Night of the Long Knives.

Hmm. I wouldn't personally call Röhm a socialist, whereas the Strassers certainly were. But that's just my opinion.

Fascism is inherently on the right, actually.

The political spectrum is pretty much irrelevant. It should be a scale from those who want the least restrictions on human liberty to those who want the most.

So basically, it would go from left to right:
Anarchism - Libertarianism - Socialism - Conservatism - Authoritarianism

Once again, a libertarian shows basically no understanding of how society works.

When discussing the interwar German Right, the conservatives need to be mentioned. The Junkers were certainly not socialists in any form; they largely opposed even Bismarck's modest social reform. They supported the DNVP and later the NSDAP. It is one of the lasting ironies of the 1932 presidential election that the Catholics supported the Junker Hindenburg, and the Junkers supported the Catholic Hitler.
