Jim Jones was an ordained minister of a major denomination. He did not accumulate his flock under the banner of socialism. And Hitler paraded under the banner of Christianity.
One has to wonder how all the German people, most of them nominal Christians, were able to gain access to Hitler's secret conversations, as translated into French, then into English.
I would think most of the people who elected him and followed him would have had more access to his published writings and speches.
You really couldn't be more wrong about the biography of Jim Jones and the history of his ideological movement.
In 1964 he was ordained as a minister of the Disciples of Christ even though he was already pastor of the People's Full Gospel Church.
He was always part of the radical fringe of liberal Christianity up to that point.
Two years after his ordination he wrote a book entitled The Letter Killeth which rejected the inerrancy of the Bible, calling it "myths", declared that Jesus was not God and not the Messiah, but simply a teacher who had said useful things and some not-so-useful things. He was disfellowshipped from the Disciples of Christ. He then changed the name of his congregation to The Peoples Temple and moved from IN to San Francisco.
In SF he gave speeches outlining his philosophy of "apostolic socialism" and his rejection of orthodox Christian teaching.
As The Peoples Temple grew he claimed that he was one with the spirit of the Pharaoh Akenhaten, the Buddha, Jesus, Father Divine (a recently deceased black faith healer) and Vladimir Lenin.
He gave long lectures about the importance of Marxism and how The Peoples Temple was its perfect realization, and about how evil Christianity and the Christian denominations were.

I'm not familiar with the text you're referring to and not arguing my position from it.
Hitler's public acts of promoting the anti-Christian work of Alfred Rosenberg as the Reich's official philosophy, his requirement that all members of his SS engage in specifically pagan rituals and his appointment of an openly anti-Christian pagan as head minister of the State Church - a man who publicly suggested that the Bible on the pulpit of each state church be officially replaced with a copy of Mein Kampf - all this is proof to me of Hitler's actual religious convictions and it was obvious to millions of German Christians as well.
