> The Z in Nazi is for "sozialistische" === socialist

No, it's not. Emphatically, demonstrably not.

Ignoring your other stuff about attempting to make the tired "Nazis were socialists, it's in their name, see?" argument, which is just Wolfgang-Pauli-levels of "not even wrong", the "z" in Nazi comes from the German pronunciation of "National".

Yeah, it didn't begin as a shortening, but an insult pun, which is why Hitler banned the term after gaining power.
