I’ve been watching a few docu-series on the political nature of the National Socialist party and it seems that most of their brain washing of the German people relied on propaganda and false information. My question really has to do with the earlier figureheads of the party and their Aryan belief system. Did they have any factual grounds to believe that “lesser races” had corrupted and infiltrated their government and way of life? Or was it a sense of social misinformation of that day and age? Was anti-semitism a popular notion among German people of the time? Why?
