How did Adolf Hitler rise to power in Germany?


Adolf Hitler's rise to power in Germany was a complex process that involved a combination of factors, including:

Economic and social unrest: After World War I, Germany was in a state of economic and social turmoil. The Treaty of Versailles imposed harsh reparations on Germany, leading to hyperinflation and widespread poverty. This created a fertile ground for extremist ideologies to take root.


Political instability: The Weimar Republic, Germany's democratic government at the time, was weak and unstable. It was plagued by political infighting and lacked strong leadership. This allowed Hitler and the Nazi Party to exploit the situation and gain power.


Hitler's charisma and propaganda: Hitler was a skilled orator and propagandist. He used his speeches and writings to spread his message of hatred and nationalism. He also used propaganda to manipulate public opinion and demonize his opponents.


Violence and intimidation: The Nazi Party used violence and intimidation to suppress dissent and consolidate its power. The SA (Sturmabteilung), the Nazi paramilitary wing, was responsible for numerous acts of violence against political opponents and Jewish people.


The Reichstag fire: In 1933, the Reichstag, the German parliament building, was set on fire. The Nazis blamed the fire on communists and used it as an excuse to crack down on political opponents and consolidate their power. In 1933, Hitler was appointed Chancellor of Germany. Once in power, he quickly dismantled democratic institutions and established a totalitarian dictatorship. He also initiated a campaign of persecution against Jewish people, culminating in the Holocaust.


Hitler's rise to power was a result of a complex interplay of factors, including economic and social unrest, political instability, Hitler's charisma and propaganda, and the use of violence and intimidation. It is important to remember that Hitler's rise to power was not inevitable, but rather the result of a series of choices made by individuals and institutions.

What's stopping you?

[–] TehBamski 5 points 3 months ago

I'm pretty sure nearly all of them didn't get a consensual invite.

Here's what I came up with.

Using Meredith Kopit-Levien's annual pay from the New York Times, at $10.2 million (as stated in the graph.) Then pluging in the 36% raise she was 'given' in 2024(?) and divide by 600 Times Tech Guild members. The following is what I got.

Base salary: $10.2 million 36% of $10.2 million = $10.2 million × 0.36 = $3.672 million $3.672 million ÷ 600 = $6,120 per person

Current average salary: $158,000 (using what was stated in the graph) Potential raise: $6,120 Percentage increase = ($6,120 ÷ $158,000) × 100 = 3.87%

So if the value of the 36% raise ($3.672 million) were distributed equally among the 600 guild members: Each member would receive a $6,120 raise This would represent approximately a 3.87% increase to their current average salary.

a Dell OptiPlex 5040 that I saved from the dumpster at work because I’m a cheapskate.

You are absolutely not a cheapskate for doing that. That's being resourceful. You save money that way and can put it towards other things that matter more. Nothing wrong with that. Why spend a few hundred dollars for a new laptop/desktop when you can just get one used that will run for another 2-4 years before it dies?

Where would you place your 'badassary' on the scale today?

[–] TehBamski 1 points 3 months ago

Oof! That's alright. There's always tomorrow or the next, to feel like a badass in some capacity.

[–] TehBamski 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Oh nice! What made you feel like a 6 on the badass scale?

[–] TehBamski 2 points 3 months ago

What had you feeling like a 2 on the 'badass scale'?

[–] TehBamski 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Oh dang. That's an underwhelming experience. But I want to ask. Why did that affect you negatively?

[–] TehBamski 3 points 3 months ago

Oh dang. Well life in the end, isn't just about what others get out of it. It's also what you get out of it. Don't sell yourself short. Everyone deserves to feel badass at least once in their life imo.

[–] TehBamski 4 points 3 months ago

Hell yeah brother! Taking care of animals is super badass!

My goodness! I'm glad things went well during the open heart surgery. How long is the recovery for such a thing?
