- Hyperinflation in the Weimar Republic reached its peak in 1923
- the NSDAP (the nazi party) got only 2% of the vote in the 1928 elections
- Hitler rose to power in 1933, after getting over 40% of the vote.
Note that there were 4 national elections between 1930 and 1933. The Weimar Republic was about as stable politically as a house of cards on a trampoline.
It’s still true that part of the success of Hitler’s party was due to former non-voters losing fate in the established parties, especially in regards to economic policy, but it is not as direct of a connection as your comment makes it out to be.
Oh, come off it! Pharma is keeping us sick, really? Listen to yourself!
