I hate memes with false information being used to smugly tease other people. The quote attached to Hitler there is in fact a statement by another German,Gregor Strasser, in a speech he made to the Reichstag in 1925. A former member of the FreiKorps, he was staunchly anti capitalist, anti-semetic, and anti-communist. He was one of many anti-capitalists who died during the purging of the Nazi party 1934. (See "the night of long knives" aka "operation butterfly"). Pretty much all the anti capitalists and political opponents to Hitler in the party died that month.

Morale of the story: go ahead and make fun of people, just make sure you source your facts. And yes, I expect some saltiness to come from this.
