Hitler achieved the highest position in the cabinet of ministries on 30 January 1933. Hitler now set out to dismantle the structures of democratic rule. The Fire Decree of 28 February 1933 suspended civic rights like freedom of speech, press and assembly. Communists were hurriedly packed off to new established concentration camps. All political parties were banned. Special surveillance and security forces were created to control the people and rule with impunity.

How did Hitler dismantle democracy in Germany?

By not allowing freedom of speech, people could not rebel alone against him.

He systematically took away rights from specific groups of people such as Communists, homosexuals, and Jews. Media was systematically controlled through a public Ministry of Public Enlightenment and Propaganda. Thugs and public officials were used as force behind these measures, and common citizens were used through nationalism to further enhance public loyalty to the state. He used a narrative of the German people being strong people to play on the German people's insecurities.

Following President Hindenburg's death, Hitler imposed unconstitutional laws combining the Presidency with the position of Chancellor. He made German public officials swear an oath of loyalty to him. A plebisicite was run to the people to approve of these new powers, which they overwhelmingly did, effectively solidifying his position as Fuhrer and dictator.
