@Mapuc: Your school is right, and when you begin to believe Facebook or Skybird you will soon run into problems.

Hitler included all buzzwords of the time in his party's name to get the most of people into it, from "socialists", to workers, to strong right-wing nationalists bemoaning the outcome of WW1 and striving for revenge. Despite the name there was not much content that qualifies as socialist.

What fuels those misunderstandings that the NSDAP was "socialist", is what Götz Aly recently wrote in his book: Hitler has a clear understanding that a (short) war would only be possible if he soothed the people: Giving them money, material goods, and in the later war give well-made funiture to people who had been bombed out of their houses and lost their property. And he took it from the jews.

Capitalism worked well in WW2 in Germany, from his connections to US entreprenuer Henry Ford (most war trucks were built by Ford), to private companies like Krupp, Thyssen, Henschel, you name it, who all made good money during the war. Not one of those companies was dispossessed. Hitler only did it with companies with directors that opposed him, like e.g. Hugo Junkers. He was dispossessed and dealt with in a way he soon died.

One dictator at the head of the state, killing or subdueing all resistance and people (or races) he despises, stealing their money to "make Germany great again" with his "movement" and invade neighbouring countries. How do you call that? Socialism?
