The Nazis were the nazis because that's how nationalsozialistische is pronounced, specifically the national part, https://youtu.be/VxxFl5Xc8nc, and then the allies used nazis as the nickname/shorthand. Has nothing to do with the socialist part, so your argument makes no sense.

Did you think they were called nazis because there is the "zi" part in sozialistische?

Because this comment thread is starting to feel like those reddit moments where someone starts pompously arguing from a position of ignorance
