Did the characteristics of the Weimar Republic contribute heavily to the German’s embrace of nationalistic fervor? And who were the dominant cultural and business leaders of the Weimar Republic?
I’ve been reading some conspiracy theory type website for fun. Some is outlandish and some more plausible. This is a theory I had never heard before.
Apparently, Weimar Germany was completely degenerate with child prostitution, German women sold for low amounts, beastiality, …etc
The claim is then that this humiliation is what underpins the uprising of the sentiment which would allow nazi germany to rise to what it became.
How much of that is accurate if any at all?
