Nope. Only on one single issue. Otherwise, it believed in one, controlling federal authority. In this case, Adolf Hitler. Liberalism is based on a bigger, more expanding, controlling federal governement. It believes that government can solve all problems, eliminating capitalism. Therefore, Liberalism and Nazism are really one in the same. Communism also falls into this principle. All defined as a whole.

Hitler and Stalin were both extreme Socialists.

I think the confusion of labeling Nazis as right-wing versus left-wing comes from where they lived. The Americans that followed Hitler and protested involvement in WWII were definitely viewed as right-wing...partly because they opposed FDR.

The followers of Hitler in America after WWII continued the hatred for the Jewish and at one point added Catholics to their hate list. This is odd because FDR is known to have made statements to his cabinet members such as "We are a Protestant nation, you Jews and Catholics are here through suffrage." (I saw a former Jewish cabinet member of FDR's on PBS who was quite upset about that)
