The German public only mass protested against the Nazis once. And as a result, the Nazis met all their demands, specifically saving a specific group of Jews from extermination, and nobody was terrorized. Very curious.



None of this is correct. To begin with, a couple of hundred or maybe a thousand women protesting for a week is not a mass protest or "The German public" protesting. The Gestapo would have released this specific group regardless as they were supposed to replace those Jews actually deported to Auschwitz in late February/early March of 1943.
Further, they *were* terrorized while being held, some of them driven to committing suicide.
Another weird speculation - saving them from extermination. Well, some were sent to Theresienstadt in 1945, luckily not all of them.

And the Nazis, being a reactionary movement, born literally out of the reaction to communist revolution in Germany in 1918 and 1919, were virulently anti-communist. This is what fascism being liberalism in distress means.


While this person is mentally unwell, it is important to specifically correct this:
national socialism (better: Nationaler Sozialismus) already existed decades before Hitler was born, but the rhetoric that we´ve come to know and associate with it we already find in the programm of the Czechoslovak German minority party DAP (founded in 1904), later renamed to DNSAP in May 1918, obviously preceding any "communist revolution in Germany". Rudolf Jung, representing those parties in parliament, was, in the literal sense of the word, Proto-Hitler and heavily influenced early Reichsnazis and their programm.
