I am honestly surprised this theory didn't make it into the Moscow Show Trials...almost everything else did.

It could simply have been lost in translation.

Easy. Because they hope they'll be on top of the gerarchy, keeping some people as de-facto slaves and killing others to get their stuff.

The question is, of course, why do neo-nazi groups exist? Why are there people who seem to see the Third Riech as something to be emmulated or glorified?
As we all know, the Nazi regime was an authoritarian Facsist dictatorship involving racial nationalism, a personality cult, genocide on a massive and industrialized scale, and the standard dictatorial violence.

Personally, I think that people today are attracted to Nazism for the same reasons they were then: They feel somehow let down or betrayed by society and channel that into nationalist or racist fervor.

For the same reason there are still communists. Some people just can't let go of their dead ideology.

Neo-Nazi (and other such groups) always will exist because xenophobes need their clubs too.

I have found a fair deal of chumminess between Bulgarians and Nazis on another site, though it makes more sense as the "Slavic" language basically came from Greece and moved up, with Hitler (thought highly enough of the Bulgarians), deciding in his last years that there was a difference between ethnic (Polish, Russian, Czech, Serbian) Slavs and linguistic (Croatian, Bulgaria, others with land he didn't want) Slavs. Though strange they didn't seem to care how Bulgar may have translated to basically mean mongrel.

I meant on British who express their xenopfobia. I have noticed on another site this penomenon.

Sorry, I don't see the connection to the previous posts. Nor to the British not liking Slavs. Anyways, it is probably simply because you can't read the German Nazi websites. Which site where you thinking of? Once browsing Stormfront to see what they thought about Judah Benjamin and the Confederacy I found that they ordered each other to not bash Slavs. As well as telling about ejecting some Iranian women who went around to different sites insulting people for not being as Aryan as her. And finding them all bashing some person who had been on the site for a while when he said that he was having second thoughts about all non-whites being horrid when he started to fall for a Black neighbor.

The Slavic languages did not originate in Greece and move north. Wherever did you get that idea?

Sorry, I was thinking of the Greek who went up and created the Cyrillic script. That and Bulgarian is older than Russian.

The script, yes, that did happen that way. Bulgarian has a longer history, I suspect, because it was closer (physically) to the Byzantine Empire than Russia.
