MisterHex@lemmy.worldtoNo Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why was Hitler so mean and hateful toward one group or another? I find it hard to believe he woke up one day and said you and you suck but these people over here are good. Taking it so far as killing?

19 hours agoI recall he blamed the original surrender of Germany in WW1 on the Jewish people because the main signatory was Gustav Bauer, the chancellor of Germany who was Jewish.
Bauer was Chancellor for Germany at the time and I recall Hitler attributing him to be Jewish. I think he made explicit reference to this in Mien Kampf but I cannot be sure as I have never read it. I’m not saying he was or that Hitler was right, it’s just that he blamed the Jews for German defeat and troubles as a result of the treaty of Versailles.
