“Who says you have to be white to be a National Socialist? You don’t have to be white, it can by anybody.”

If he's referring to the mid-twentieth-century German national socialists, then the answer is "everyone". He's the wrong guy to be wearing a Swastika armband. It's a simple tautology. The "National" refers to a nation defined by race -- it's what distinguished the NAZIs from the Soviet Communists, who professed to be about international socialism.

However, in another sense, he's quite correct. The guy's hispanic -- he could join the race-based "La Raza" (it means "the race" -- so, again tautologically, it's a race-based organization). Perhaps "La Raza" isn't as overtly socialist as the earlier "La Raza Unida Party"; but, you can be certain that it's not a free-enterprise party. The cabbie wants to be a national socialist, he's Hispanic -- he could wear an arm band with a "La Raza" symbol, and no one would dare bother him about it.

You mean the National Council of La Raza. It’s not a party, but an advocacy group. They’re trying to be pan-Latino in a way that the older Chicano-based party wasn’t, but this guy isn’t Mexican and might well prefer Nordics to the Aztecs.

The only difference — ideologically — between the Nazis and the Commies is that the former were NATIONAL Socialists, and the latter were INTERNATIONAL Socialists.

Your right to a degree about the National in National Socialist being Race...

but consider that the Nazis had no problem have alliances with non whites...

The Japanese for one..

Arab for another...

The Arabs particular ironic since they are a Semitics people like Jews are

The flip side is the Nazi made mostly of war on what would be considered white people, British, French Poles Czechoslovakians Russians etc..most of Europe.

When you factor the Japanese another non Caucasian allies of the Nazis, a case to be made that the axis Alliance was more non white then the Allied Alliance...

Strange
