Most likely, his beliefs that led to this have to do with the term "national socialist".

And I still have another whole day of Visiting Family For Christmas to get through - while doing my best to not end up talking politics, because whenever I talk politics with relatives, someone calls me a Stalinist, and one of the Hungarian nationalist nutjobs on Dad's side of the family loses it on me about '56 as soon as I agree I'm a Stalinist just to shut the McCarthyist up. (At least tomorrow I'm seeing Mum's side, Dad's was yesterday and part of today, politics came up but I didn't get called a pinko or anything worse and no one started up at me about '56, thank the heavens.) Ugh, someone please shoot me.
