It’s preserved history. You can see exactly what Hitler was telling his followers.

Whether or not they actually were socialist is up for debate, but Hitler and his followers definitely identified themselves as such.

I can’t tell if you’re trying to argue the Nazis were actually socialist or if you’re just acknowledging that they claimed to be

Mostly that they claimed to be and that’s how they built their initial following. They did a few socialist things here and there but they really stopped with that when WWII came around.
