Some of the finest examples of propaganda in history.
Except for Hitler’s most successful public meetings, I had never seen an audience so effectively roused to fanaticism. Back in his home, Goebbels astonished me by analyzing what had seemed to be a purely emotional outburst in terms of its psychological effect — much as an experienced actor might have done. He was also satisfied with his audience that evening. “Did you notice? They reacted to the smallest nuance and applauded at just the right moments. It was the politically best-trained audience you can find in Germany.”

SGT John " Mac " McConnell another thing people fail to take into account is national pride. The Germans had been humiliated and impoverished by WWI sanctions. Left the door open for someone to come in and instill that feeling again. Right wrong or indifferent hunger, bad economic plight, and being relevant again moved people in directions they would have otherwise shunned. That and the threat of being killed for opposing the government is persuasive.

Hail Victory !
The Nazi salute or Hitler salute (German: Hitlergruß – literally "Hitler Greeting") is a gesture that was used as a greeting in Nazi Germany. The salute is performed by extending the right arm from the neck into the air with a straightened hand. Usually, the person offering the salute would say "Heil Hitler!" (Hail Hitler!), "Heil, mein Führer!" (Hail, my leader!), or "Sieg Heil!" (Hail victory!). It was adopted in the 1930s by the Nazi Party to signal obedience to the party's leader, Adolf Hitler, and to glorify the German nation (and later the German war effort). The salute was mandatory for civilians, but was mostly optional for military personnel who retained the traditional military salute until shortly after the failed assassination attempt on Hitler in 1944.
Use of this salute is currently a criminal offense in Germany, Slovakia, and Austria. In Canada, the Czech Republic, France, the Netherlands, Sweden,Switzerland, and Russia, the salute is illegal hate speech if used for propagating Nazi ideology.
