"If, with the help of his Marxist creed, the Jew is victorious over the other peoples of the world, his crown will be the funeral wreath of humanity and this planet will, as it did thousands of years ago, move through the either devoid of men."...means if we don't try to stop Jews or communist the world will go back to the dark ages.
"Hence today I believe that I am acting in accordance with the will of the Almighty Creator: by defending myself against the Jew, I am fighting for the work of the Lord."...means god told him to.
"Here he stops at nothing, and in his vileness he becomes so gigantic that no one need be surprised if among our people the personification of teh devil as the symbol of all evil assumes the living shape of the Jew."...means the Jews are trying to dilute the Aryans
Nazi Propaganda
"All propaganda must be so popular and on such an intellectual level, that even the most stupid of those toward whom it is directed will understand it...Through clever and constant application of propaganda, people can be made to see paradise as hell, and also the other way around, to consider the most wretched sort of life as paradise."...Hitler
Can sway people...go after the poorer people or less smart...the rich/smarter people left the country
