      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazi_Party

      The Nazi Party,[b] officially the National Socialist German Workers’ Party (German: Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei [c] or NSDAP), was a far-right[10][11][12] political party in Germany active between 1920 and 1945 that created and supported the ideology of Nazism. Its precursor, the German Workers’ Party (Deutsche Arbeiterpartei; DAP), existed from 1919 to 1920. The Nazi Party emerged from the extremist German nationalist (“Völkisch nationalist”), racist and populist Freikorps paramilitary culture, which fought against communist uprisings in post–World War I Germany.[13] The party was created to draw workers away from communism and into völkisch nationalism.[14] Initially, Nazi political strategy focused on anti–big business, anti-bourgeois, and anti-capitalist rhetoric; it was later downplayed to gain the support of business leaders. By the 1930s, the party’s main focus shifted to antisemitic and anti-Marxist themes.[15] The party had little popular support until the Great Depression, when worsening living standards and widespread unemployment drove Germans into political extremism.[12]

      How was I misinformed?

      Oh, this is one of those “I don’t like being called names so I’ll redefine words” things?

        Let’s have a think…

        Aggressive wars again neighbours

        Creating a lebensraum for chosen race

        Racism and racist laws

        Exterminating lesser races

        Ghettos and concentration camps

        Tortures

        Naah, definitively not a nazism, sweetheart 😂
