You can't blame socialism for being in the NSDAP name; if you do you have fallen for their trap.
They chose the name they would be identified by to 'trap' unwary observers? Interesting.

I don't watch video unless I have to, especially the ones that have a lot of argumentation. I like to read and fact check whatever feels like needing it.
I can take the time to enjoy a good rant. I don't necessarily agree — Razorfist still defends Michael Jackson for instance.

Try your feels on his referents.
  • Fascism: Doctrines and Institutions, Benito Mussolini, 1933, p. 135
  • Origins and Doctrine of Fascism, Giovanni Gentile
  • 25-point Nazi economic plan, points 13,14 and 17
  • Das Ende Des Kapitalismus , Ferdinand Fried
I don't mind the term 'social' in fact I identify as a social anarchist.

Social anarchism[1][2][3][4][5] is considered to be the branch of anarchism that sees individual freedom as being interrelated with mutual aid.[6] Social anarchist thought emphasizes community and social equality as complementary to autonomy and personal freedom through norms such as freedom of speech maintained in a decentralized federalism, balanced with freedom of interaction in thought as well as incorporating the concept of subsidiarity, namely "that one should not withdraw from individuals and commit to the community what they can accomplish by their own enterprise and industry" and that "[f]or every social activity ought of its very nature to furnish help to the members of the body social, [should] never destroy and absorb them", or simply the slogan "Do not take tools out of people's hands".[6][7]

Social anarchism has also advocated that the conversion of a proportion of present-day and future productive private property be made into social property to offer individual empowerment through easier access to such as tools or parts, or a sharing of the commons while retaining respect for personal property.[8] The term is used to describe the theory—contra individualist anarchism—that places an emphasis on the communitarian and cooperative aspects in anarchist theory while also opposing authoritarian forms of communitarianism associated with groupthink and collective conformity and instead favouring a reconciliation between individuality and sociality. For instance, illegitimate authority is removed through inspection and vigilance. While self-determination is asserted as is worker's self-management and education and empowerment emphasized, both individually and through interaction with the community, a do-it-yourself (DIY) mentality is combined with educational efforts within the social realm.

Social anarchism is considered an umbrella term that includes—but it is not limited to—the post-capitalist economic models of anarcho-communism, collectivist anarchism and sometimes mutualism, or even non-state controlled federated guild socialist dual power industrial democracy and economic democracy or federated worker cooperatives in addition to workers' and consumers' councils, replacing much of the present state system yet still retaining basic rights as well as the trade union approach of anarcho-syndicalism, the social struggle strategies of platformism and specifism and the environmental philosophy of social ecology. The term social anarchism is often used interchangeably with libertarian socialism[9] or left-libertarianism[10] and emerged in the late 19th century as a distinction from individualist anarchism.[11]
