I do not know whether the op is serious about his indirect claim of Hitler being a marxist. I would really love to see such a strong thesis actually being backed up by historic evidence. If there's no evidence to prove the thesis, explain, you might even have a point. I think with a 99% probability it'll be absolutely pointless.
Generally, a fascist system is quite differing from a socialist system:
Socialists emphasize public ownership over the economy, while fascists support private ownership. Fascists, other than usual capitalists support state control over private ownership at least to a certain extent to protect employers for example from being overthrown by employees and to protect "the public order". So fascism is capitalism without freedom as opposed to socialism which is a different concept. Italy and Japan always called their fascist systems what they were (certainly not socialist) while Nazi Germany needed workers who would have otherwise supported communists, so they made their programme a bit more socialist-looking which did not change their final intentions and their support for several privatizations and their support for private property (the latter was a bit weakened during the war to finance it, in the first six "peaceful" years they strongly defended private property, in the case of a win they would have enslaved all people of races they did not like after the war, which is NOT compatible with the egalitarian concept of socialism). Sadly they had to call themselves "National Socialist", they were quite dishonest by using that term. Thank God the US under Roosevelt (and the USSR under Stalin ) defeated them.
Before Hitler, Socialistic Marxism was a big hit in intellectual settings.

I said Hitler took on the Socilistic teachings of Marxism.
After WW-II, socialist crawled under a rock and relabeled their branding.
Just recently, have they pulled the masks off and admitted to their socialist goal. The same goals other Socialist, Stalin, Mussolini, Wilson and Hitler, had.
