why Nazism is not conservative - more content. Radical right wing does not = conservative.

The Nazis were not in any way, shape or form [[conservative]], this despite the portrayal of it by some as a product or form of ultra-conservatism. Rather, they were a [[radical]] movement rooted in an extreme interpretation of [[Darwinism]] wherein the weak were regarded with contempt, and the [[Jews]] as a threat to society who needed to be eliminated. The Nazis were on the whole anti-[[Christian]] and regarded Christianity with little more than contempt as a religion of the "weak" rooted in Judaism. Specific cultural movements eventually feeding into the rise of the Nazi Party to power included an [[occultism]] movement interested in black magic and Germanic pre-Christian [[pagan]] religion popular in Germany in the decades before [[WWII]]; and a [[counterculture]] movement of disaffected and alienated youth after [[WWI]] known as the ''Wandervogel'', which eventually provided much of the recruitment base for the S.S. and S.A., two Nazi Party [[paramilitary]] groups.
Their hatred of the Jews eventually led to the [[Holocaust]].
