Is the time of Nazi, and Hitler's Rule in Germany a communist one? (what type of political power was it?)

Out of curiousity, I was wondering what type of pilitical rule Germany was in during that time.

What spawned the thought of genocide?
What type of education, or knowledge would bring about such a strong force of hatred?
What type of Media, or News was feed to the people?
What or how could humanity be so cold hearted?

Is there any strong relationship between the Nazi/Jew scenario and the Japanese/Chinese scenario?
If so, What and how?

It was called fascism. It's a blend of militarism and patriotism.

The Nazis were a "Socialist" party which was essentially a fascist regime run by the totalitarian dictator Hitler. Genocide of the Jews and Slavic people were spawned from Hitlers views demonstrated in his book Mein Kampf, which said such groups were inferior to the Germanic people. He promoted the idea that the Jews were a menace to society and that the Communist party was a group of Jewish conspirators. He sought to conquer Russia to exterminate the Slavic and Jewish people located there and take their land for "lebensraum" (living room for the Germanic people).



Hitler used propaganda to manipulate the German people and to promote the idea that Jews were inferior. Facts would be altered to make the German army look successful and to glorify their "great" leader (Hitler of course).



The Holocaust and the genocide of the Chinese by the Japanese were had similarities but were not strongly related. Like Hitler the Japanese emperor convinced the Japanese people they were superior to the Chinese and that they deserved Chinese land for Japanese prosperity. However, the slaughter of the Chinese was by military means and wasn't a systematic extermination like the Final Solution performed by the Nazis. The Nazis employed efficient killing techniques (mass murders by use of Zyklon B) and performed scientific experiments on the Jews (Auschwitz), which is a bit more malicious than conquering land.

Natzi comes from National Socialist Party. but it was not socialist or comunist. The wealthy kept their money but like all people all their resources and abilities were best used to advance the state. The term is Faschism a far right politcal ideology. whlie communism is a far left ideology. Germany, having lost World War one was in bad shape when the depression hit. Then things got worse. The Jews, Gypsies, and other minorities made easy targets for scapegoating. Hitler may have been sane at the beginning but use of Methamphetimine went from occaisional to constant use. The first case of Amphetimine Psycosis leading a nation off the deep end. All media was cotrolled by the State, Goebbels Minister of Propaganda. The BIG LIE technique Do as your told. Dont ask questions the Furher will save the Nation

It was fascist. That is way different from communist. The wealth stays with the elite. Not that the failed communist regime in Russia was any different, but ideologically it was supposed to be different.



What spawned the thought of genocide? Scapegoat-ism. If you can get everybody to agree to hate one thing in common, you have a team effort. Go team!



It takes no education to hate. In fact, it is the LACK of education that inspires hate. But to be more specific, the Jews were better off than most people, they were good with money. Now if some body politic were to say it was okay for you to take that money by force, you can see how a lot of undereducated goobers would jump at the chance.



What type of media? They did have newsprint and radio in those days. Not much different from how the black man was depicted in the racist propaganda of the U.S. media in those days, the caricatures of fat lipped ugly looking Africans ready to rape your white innocent 18 year old daughter.



How could humanity be so cold hearted? Obviously, you have not seen the REAL photographs coming out of Iraq. You know, the ones with bodies and their heads missing or the power drill holes in some tortured victims before they were likewise decapitated.



The Nazi/Jew scenario and the Japanese/Chinese scenario has its similarities in that both races viewed the other as inferior.



Albert Einstein was of Jewish descent, and one of the wisest people that ever walked the earth. You in all likelihood would not be using a computer were it not for Uncle Albert, who turned time on its head and enabled science to go forth. He may not have agreed with quantum theory, but he sure inadvertently opened the door to such ideas.

The Nazi party was considered a fascist regime.

Hitler focused on the Jews because as a "strong christian" he believed the Jews were responsible for the death of Jesus and desreved killing as a result.Hitler had complete control of all media during his reign so only positive news of the country were allowed.This is why he became so angry that Jesse Owens won so many medals in the 1936 Olympic games.

The Japanese/Chinese situation was one of an invading force taking control of the other country and making virtual slaves of them.The Nazis just outright started killing Jews because of the whole killing Jesus thing.

Yes, Hitler was indeed a communist. But he used social engineering in a negative way to brainwash his followers. those who refused to think his way were masacred. Hitler was a racist and a leader who believed in totalitarianism. His way or no way, and killed many innocent people without regret, or care. His type of thinking is very frightening, and the more power he gained, the more dangerous to the population he became.
