German Nazi Party gains seats

Just because they are right wing you call them Nazis? Why? Was Thatcher a Nazi? How about Pin Fortyne? How about Vlams Block? Front Nationale? edit-> Europe is moving to the right. It is only the spectre of Nazism that stops it moving faster. Le Pen (Front National in France) came second to Chirac in the run offs in 2001. Sweden yesterday elected a right wing government. Vlams Bloc has over 30% of the vote in northern Belgium. Holland elected Pin Firtuyne to power. Is it a bad thing? Many here complain about Islam, and the decay of western culture, the right wing will lessen that. <-edit

The decay, or the complaining?

Rather than indulge in your flame invitation, I'd like to point out some comic relief: have a look at the Wikipedia page on NPD[^]. I had to laugh at their list of heralded leaders:
- Adolf Hitler 1919– 1945
- Racist Bastard I [[1945 – 1964
- Racist Bastard II 1964–1967
- Racist Bastard III 1967–1971
- Racist Bastard IV 1971–1990
- Racist Bastard V 1991–1996
- Racist Bastard VI 1996–present

I find it difficult to think of National Socialism as "right-wing" maybe extreme left wing, certainly statist, racist and collectivist, but hardly conservative or right-wing.

Yeah, politics based on racism has worked so well in the past.

The National Democratic Party comfortably exceeded the 5 % hurdle necessary to win seats. It will now sit in the state's regional assembly in Schwerin for the first time.[^] :doh:
This morning's German papers, reporting on the poll and yesterday's election in Berlin, gave a gloomy reaction. Der Tagesspeigel said there was no point in pretending that the NPD's voters - most of them under the age of 30 - had somehow been tricked into voting for a bunch of unashamed racists. "Whoever voted for this party, knew what they were doing," the paper said.

Nasty. The racist nationalist parties will be making a return all over Europe before long. 3 guesses why.

Then clearly you don't understand the term. Just because the Nazis happened to have the word "socialism" in their name doesn't make them socialist. It's just one of history's little ironies.

Pin Firtuyne
Pim Fortuyn was not "far right", he was a social liberal, economic moderate and garish populist. He once debated a prominent dutch imam on live television, Pim flaunted his homosexuality, said imam snapped and went into a frothing at the mouth homophobic rant amply demonstrating his opponents point. That pretty much sums up the mans position. He was smeared as a Nazi (not least by the BBC) and killed by a crazed hippie who believed he was doing the right thing: "I confess to the shooting. He was an ever growing danger who would affect many people in society. I saw it as a danger. I hoped that I could solve it myself."

Since a basic premise of their philosophy is absolute detication to the state, and complete state control of the economy, I would say that they were indeed socialist. Left-wing does not preclude rasist, nor does right-wing imply it.

The Nazis consciously wished to create an unequal society while maintaining existing commercial structures.. Something which isn't present in socialist rhetoric (if not practice). The command economy and statism fits though.

Not really true. Hitler was every much anti-capitalist. Germany, being in a bad depression, gravitated toward state control and socialism.

Which also happens to be an extreme right-wing, facist, philosophy. It is interesting that both ends of the political spectrum resemble each other so much in practice (another irony), but they are not the same and typically hate each other. Hence while the Nazis hated communists and had many members of the German communist parties arrested, deported and/or murdered.

It's confusion on both sides of the atlantic. I think it's time for mainstream media to use the two dimensional political measurements. That would put nazis on a left/authoritarian position. Maybe the "right wing" label comes from the fact that they are right of socialism (but not that much) on the economic scale..? :shrug:
