Am-Hooman: Hi there, just wanted to clarify my position about the economic policy of Nazism. Firstly, I believe we are operating under different definitions of "capitalism". Capitalism as its own term was coined by socialists, and as such i believe the socialist definition is more appropriate, that being, that capitalism is defined by private ownership over the means of production. It does not necessarily imply a free market (Welfare Capitalism, Keynesian School), nor does it imply a lack of co-operation between state and capital (as is the case in most Neoliberal economies).

Under Nazi Germany, the capitalist mode of production still existed, and the private sector was actually expanded under Nazi rule (which is especially notable given that the private sector typically decreases during wartime). Since the Nazis not only maintained, but expanded the capitalist mode of production, I believe it is appropriate to classify them under "capitalists", at least in practice, even if individual members of the NSDAP disagreed on economics.
