His country was in a bad spot and he took advantage politically by making the right friends and saying the right thing (no pun intended). He was in the war. Easy to call him a nobody but any man who went thru ww1 to me is a hard motherfukker.
He def had a gift for gab. Never seen no shyt like that. Those people were entranced. His oration skills are damn near unmatched. He know how to get into someones soul and thats powerful voodoo. Ive seen interviews of people saying “hitler stared right into my eyes. I froze. How could this powerful man look at me? He must be good. He cares”... he was a man with no connection with people, abusing that connection. that shyt goes far when you come off genuine. Just he was also crazy.
What it should be is a lesson that a complete nobody, VEGAN, teetotal lame, artist type could become the most powerful BLOODthirsty man in the world. For all the modern “nazi” talk. Pay attention to THIS. Wolves in sheeps clothing. MASTER manipulation.
