That's why the Nazis made a policy of exterminating the slavs, I guess.

Actually, in its own sick way, yes. Nazi socialism sought a unity of the so-called "pure" German race of workers. The rest of us were all subworkers to him and accordingly out of the nazi equation of socialism.

Why did Hitler's minions kill between 12-15 million Russian workers? That's a mighty funny way to unite people.

See above. It's a way a Soviet socialist named Joe Stalin tried as well for that matter.

The Soviets did, after a fashion, adopt socialism. Certainly there was no private ownership. When the Nazis crashed in and advanced almost to Moscow, Stalin adopted more of a defense of the motherland motif and played down the socialist idea.

You know -- nationalism and socialism are opposites.
