So you are advocating the way the Nazis took power in Germany.
lol @ how stupid liberals are |
That is a stupid comment. Because the Nazi's took power largely through winning democratically-held elections, though without winning a majority in Parliament, via the use of propaganda and by saying one thing to urban voters, another thing to workers, another thing to industrialists, and yet something else to rural voters.
Between the Beer Hall Putsch of 1923 and coming to power in July 1932, Nazi's used violence primarily against the paramilitary units of the
Rotfrontkämpferbund and the KPD, their existential enemies, the political parties on the radical left. Nazi violence in the days before the July 1932 election was against the Communist paramilitary.
Their streetfighting was was not the deciding factor in their slim parliamentary victory in the federal election of July 1932, which is what first brought them into power.
Please don't respond by explaining the "difference" between "taking power" and "winning power." Go study some German history and then stab yourself in the face.
