The other side of the coin is that it was so corrupt and depraved that the Nazis almost seemed like an adequate reaction.

"The Holocaust was good because gays, homosexuals, and jazz shouldn't exist" is a very Nazi take.

They didn't attract voters by peddling Holocaust, they came to power on the promise of tackling the perceived immorality of drugged-up parties, child prostitution and its contrast with poverty. Yes, "stolen victory" too, but who would care about that if the country wasn't in disarray?

Luxembergism was the adequate reaction, the Nazi Party, even at that time, was just as corrupt and depraved.

The cutthroats who ran the revolution won't cede power to anyone, they didn't risk their lives for that. Every revolution is followed by the spider can where the most ruthless kill the rest.
