This guy was an interesting guest but I don’t think he has a real understanding of what Hitler was fighting for, regardless of his flaws. What is the root of Nationalism? It is collectivism or tribalism, which in-&-of-itself is as natural as caring for your family, but which when it becomes a means of oppressing the individual, as it very often does when leadership fails or becomes corrupt, can become extremely harmful. Its opposite, extreme individualism is also harmful. Why? Because it also oppresses the individual and puts him in disharmony with the social group.
