Yeah, he said one thing and did another. He may have bashed capitalist in his speeches yet he supported capitalism and worked closely with capitalists to fund his war machine.

Plus, which is on trial here: Hitler's economic plans or his human rights abuses?
Eventually he would have done away with them but he needed to compromise at the time.
Same thing. How many people were worked to death making munitions? How much gold was extracted from the teeth of murdered people to provide material for the Nazi war effort? How many people were converted to fertilizer to grow vegetables for the troops? You postulated a foolish distinction there.

I wouldn't be so sure about that. Hitler surrounded himself from beginning to end with capitalists and showed no intention of doing anything to change that relationship. One of the key points of his rhetoric was the failures of communism, and did he not purge the socialists from the ranks of the SA?
While imprisoned, he wrote his autobiography Mein Kampf (seemingly less of an autobiography and more of a collection of his political views), which included blaming the Jews for all the problems of the world including democracy, capitalism and communism.
.... Because he realized that HE NEEDED CAPITAL...also known as MONEY to continue to drive his war machine, but he hated Capitalism and there are many speeches given by him where he spoke against it and how it would be destroyed by them....
There are many differen types of Socialism, and they ALL despise one another because they have different goals....But in the end THEY ARE ALL SOCIALISTS.... From Hitler, to Stalin, Lenin, MAo,castro,Chavez and it seems that the current president is at the same level as these other dictators...
