I do not understand why revisionist persist in using the word 'NAZI' to describe the 1933 - 1945 German Government, German People, and the National Socialist German Workers Party (NSDAP).
(N)ational
(S)ozialistisch
(D)eutsch
(A)rbeiter
(P)arty
In my opinion, if a revisionist actually researched 1933 - 1945 German History, they would have easily discovered that Germans never called themselves NAZIs. They would have easily discovered that Jewish Communist Party used this Hate Word and Deragatory Word to slander their greatest opposition the NSDAP in the early 20th century.
I would exepct the truth to be of the highest importance for any revisionist. Yet, they still use NAZI - which is the most untruthful LIE to ever be levied at the German People.
Anyone still using the JEWISH HATE WORD NAZI is suspecious to me especially anyone claiming to be a scholar.
Golly, I am not sure if this is trolling or not. Revisionists have already researched this question!
And the answer is that the Nazis themselves DID use the colloquial word Nazi to describe themselves, and with great affection.
Look no further than Dr. Goebbels himself, and in the original German no less!
Here are some examples that I researched that are recorded in 2002 and 2003 discussions on the Axis History Forum, a very large forum in English based in Sweden. I am arguing this point with Roberto Muehlenkamp of the Holocaust Controversies blog, who is a native German speaker.
Dr. Goebbels, February 17, 1941 wrote:
Glass reports from the Balkans. Things in Rumania are just as I described them. Antonescu without popular support. But the Foreign Ministry is supporting him. The SS and the SD are taking a tough stand against Ribbentrop for having supplied the Führer with incomplete information. Because personally he is no Nazi. He is a Jeremiah! But I intend to have another meeting with the Führer about this. The freemasons are forcing their way back into their old positions, and even the Jews are coming back. Poor Antonescu! Now he has officially destroyed the legionary character of the state. It is hard to say where things will lead if they continue in this unhappy direction. We only seem to support nationalists when they have no nations behind them. Like Mussert and Quisling. What a disaster!

And in the original German:
Dr. Goebbels, February 17, 1941 wrote:
Aber unser A.A. stützt ihn. Die S.S. und der S.D. stehen scharf gegen Ribbentrop, der den Führer nur unvollkommen unterrichtet. Weil er selbst kein Nazi ist. Er is ein Jeremias!

And here's another one:
Dr. Goebbels, February 26, 1941 wrote:
The situation in Bulgaria is reaching boiling-point. The wildest rumours. But all wide of the mark. The American Ambassador in Sofia stages a drunken incident in a bar. We succeed in minimising the damage.
London is claiming that it knows nothing about abnormal shipping losses. We shall soon make them eat their words.
Magda writes me a very loving letter from Dresden. She is sweet and good to me these days. And I can do with it.
Work the entire afternoon. We are issuing an official announcement in the press, recalling troops on leave from Norway. A little stratagem to deceive the enemy.
Some small demonstrations against us in Amsterdam and the Hague, plus a few strikes. Seyss is too hesitant in his reaction. The old story. He is no real Nazi!
[Emphasis mine.]
Op cit, p. 246.
And in the original German:
Dr. Goebbels, February 26, 1941 wrote:
In Amsterdam und den Haag kleine Demonstrationen gegen uns und einige Streiks. Seyß geht zu zögernd dagegen an. Das alte Lied. Er is kein echter Nazi!
[Emphasis mine.]
Op cit, p. 517.
And here Dr. Goebbels uses the term
Wir Nazis /
We Nazis:
On March 15, 1933, Dr. Joseph Goebbels wrote:
Uber wir Nazis werden immer sehr schnell einig, da wir an solche fragen mit gesundem Menschenverstand herangehen.
[Emphasis mine.]
Op cit, p. 282.
And in Egnlish translation by Dr. Fiedler:
But we Nazis quickly come to an understanding, as we solve these questions by common sense.
[Emphasis mine.]
Op cit, p. 232.
There are many such examples:
Dr. Goebbels uses the term "Nazi" with great pride.
Now, I don't have any examples of Hitler using the informal term Nazi.
Hitler would have said either NSDAP, the Party, or National Socialist rather than something colloquial.
But then Hitler's image was more stage-managed and formal anyway. For example, Hitler was never publicly pictured wearing Lederhosen until after the war.
And the only known example of Hitler's normal speaking voice was recorded clandestinely by the Finnish intelligence service in Finland when Hitler met secretly with Field Marshal von Mannerheim on his 75th birthday, 4 June 1942 (
LINK).
In any case, the word Nazi is nothing more sinister than an abbreviation for
National in National Socialist. The word "National" in German is just pronounced Naht-zee-on-al, or "Nazi" for short.
In fact, real Nazis often used the terms
Alte Parteigenossen (old party-comrades) and
Old Nazis interchangeably.
On December 9, 1932, Dr. Joseph Goebbels wrote:
Alte Parteigenossen, die seit Jahren in der Bewegung unbeirrt kämpfen, haben Tränen in den Augen vor Wut, Schmerz und Scham.

Leftists (i.e., Marxists) tend to be INTERNATIONAL socialists and radical egalitarians.
However, the Nazis ─ or National Socialists if you prefer ─ are on the Right because they support NATIONALISM, reject Marxist socialism, and are categorically opposed to radical egalitarianism, race-mixing, and Jewish subversion.
