Native German speakers: Are Hitler's speeches particularly compelling? (lemmy.world)

submitted 1 day ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

I've always been told that Hitler was a masterful public speaker; that his support can largely be explained by his compelling, if not mesmerizing hold on crowds. This narrative is not common, it's universal.

Sometimes I think this is emphasized over how much the crowds approved of the content of his speech.

How do native German speakers feel when they view footage of Hitler? Do you think the reputation is earned?
