Hitler’s attitude toward the “workers” or common people was most interesting for me. It’s most interesting because of how he achieved so many followers. Although he thought of himself so far above these people, and thought that the people in the worker’s party were not fit to lead, he had the ability to rope all of thee people in through the use of propaganda. This is really a testament to Hitler’s intelligence. No matter how ridiculous, and truly sick he was, his intelligence never fails to amaze me. He was able to make people who he had no faith in have ultimate faith in him. The worker’s party and his realization that he could supposedly lead better are what encourage him to take control of the Nazi party. I am also always amazed by the amount of coincidences that Hitler encounters that could have changed everything to not have had the Nazi party in control and taking such drastic measures against the Jews.
I find it interesting to read about but also a little bit ridiculous. As we said last week in recitation, knowing what eventually happened changes reading the book a little bit. It’s almost believable. Although melodramatic, he still makes some seemingly valid points. It’s a weird feeling, to think Hitler makes sense. I find myself really confused by that.
