Therefore, Hitler resorted to using totalitarian ways to keep “order” within Germany. If people did not succumb to Hitler 's rules, they were persecuted in a fashion similar to that of Jews.

Even after his death, he still had the ability to create Neo-Nazis(“National Socialism”). Hitler pretended Jews were the cause of the Great Depression and Germany 's loss in World War II (“National Socialism”). By using Jews as scapegoats, Hitler perceived Jews as a species lower than human beings (Douning 10). Consequently, Jews converted into Christians or turned on each other due to the growing hate (Meyers). It was not only Jews who turned on Jews. Many other civilians turned on minorities during the
