We aren't in agreement that the continuum has only two opposite ends: socialism-free market where anything not free market is immediately socialism, definitely not.
Ok. But the nazi platform is labor unions, universal healthcare, retirement programs, profit redistribution, etc. your quote doesn’t contradict this.
If you have some specialized definition of socialism that this doesn’t meet. That’s fine. But this is nothing like the libertarianism or small government conservatism.

I don't know that “when the working class democratically (either via democratic control of the state, through democratic control at the level of individual firms or industries, or otherwise) control the means of production” is actually a “specialized” definition of socialism.
Socialism is not centrally about the state providing goods, Its about who controls the means of production. Provision of public goods by the state is an expected outcome of the kind of socialism where a democratic state is the vehicle of proletarian control of the means of production, but it is not the production and delivery of those goods, independent of the nature of the state and who is empowered to control the means of production through it, that makes the system “socialist”
Führerprinzip is about as opposed to socialism as any element of any real or hypothetical system can be.
Stated platform can be an absolute lie, have you fucking read what I mentioned about how the Nazi government almost literally erased all forms of labour unions? Did you check anything about the German Labour Front instituted by them? Have you read any of the history about how labour unions were treated by the Nazis?
Seriously, why would you believe the stated goals instead of their actions? Do you trust Nazis?
On Hitler about the Socialist moniker, I posted this earlier today: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43101676
