Matt isn't completely wrong about the sampling / music thing.
But some of the other points regarding extremists, etc. are suspect.

However, design was a huge part of Nazism. Goebbels' and Hitler's branding, including strong colouring, flag proportions, symbols, etc., was almost as effective as the political aspect of the campaign. The aesthetics were a huge part of Nazism (particularly evidenced by his obsession with keeping a certain look for every person).
