Hitler was admired by all Germans?

Many Germans liked him a lot. He did have some opponents, such as the Catholic Church, Jews and minorities. But most people liked him. Many saw him as a ”man of the people”, and Nazi Propaganda and rallies impressed many people with how organised and modern they were. Nazis decreased German unemployment, because building up the army created many more jobs, and people liked that a lot because everyone was scared of unemployment, following the 1929 depression.

Many people hated Germany’s previous government, the Weimar republic, due to the fact that they had been pretty useless during the depression, so they were desperate for any change, and the Nazi party represented order and discipline for most Germans. Also, Hitler was ignoring the terms of the Treaty of Versailles, which was very popular as the treaty was greatly hated throughout Germany.

Finally, many Germans held anti-Semitic views during the 1930s, and blamed the Jews for the depression. This meant that Hitler’s anti-Semitic policies were unfortunately appreciated among certain groups in Germany.
