    you do realise conservatives in Germany voted in the nazis with 44 % of the vote, social democrats (German version of the Labour Party) a distant second and the communists and minor parties way behind. The nazis were backed by newspaper barons, big business and ran a scare campaign about the communists, as a result of the red scare the people were willing to go with a strong leader and give up some freedoms, little did they know how much freedom they were giving away.
