If I were to express even the remotest sympathy for #nationalsocialism, I would be decried as a Nazi, because the two are assumed to be synonymous.

The Nazis understood the deep, popular attractions of both nationalism & socialism, which is why they combined the two.
Hitler himself was responsible for incorporating the concept of "national socialism" into the very name of the German Workers Party he had recently joined.

The inspiration for both nationalism & socialism derives from their deep roots in evolved human nature & tribalism.
Tragically for Europe & the world, Hitler exploited these powerful motivating forces for his own evil purposes. To demonise them, however, is madness.
We need to understand these forces & learn how to harness them for GOOD, in the creation of just, humane & sustainable societies.
