I wouldn't have phrased that the same as you did. If you've ever read Mien Kampf it becomes obvious that Hitler was a Germany First purist and the jews who had infiltrated cinema and publishing were seen as a corrupting influence of German purity. In a certain sense, Hitler's book reads like a commentary on conditions in the world today. If you haven't read it, its probably because society has told you that he was an evil man and everything he did was evil. This is a lie, especially in the beginning of his rise to power. There are good reasons almost all of Germany got behind him.

Look, I get that Hitler’s early appeal had roots in German frustration after World War I, and his Germany First rhetoric resonated with many. But let’s not sugarcoat it. His obsession with “purity” led to horrific scapegoating of Jews and others. Mein Kampf isn’t just a commentary, it’s a blueprint for hate. Read it, sure, but don’t romanticize the guy. Evil isn’t a lie here.

You make a mistake when you say the Jews were scapegoated. There are reasons for that. International Jewry was boycotting German goods in a big way which stressed their economy which is how Krystalnact happened. It didn't come out of nowhere. Neither did Mien Kampf, which is actually a journey of discovery of dislike for internationalism as a whole as opposed to nationalism, and pride in German identity.
