Answer:
The Nazi state sought to establish total control over its people by dubious methods of propaganda. Mass killings were termed special treatment, final solution; evacuation to disinfection areas was in reality deportation of jews to the gas chambers. The regime used language and media with careful double-meaning expertise, employing the latter for national support and international popularity. Nazi ideology was spread using images, films, radio, posters, and slogans and pamphlets. Enemies of the state were typically presented as weak and degenerate (socialists and liberals), rodents and pests (the Jews). Also, by presenting themselves as liberators and problem-solvers, the Nazis sought to win public support.
They did, in ways as:
Controlling their free time (see Kraft durch Freude)
• Conscription.
• Hitlersjugend. Teens were forced into it, and it was similar(for boys) to Sparta's training method for their kids, and girls were taught about being a housewife.
• Industry. It was controlled(indirectly) by the State, and was directed towards military production.
• Propaganda. Goebbels was a master at that one along with Hitler himself. For example, his speeches were really cautivating.
• Germans were kind of forced into believing Jews were their enemies (see above), with various movies, propaganda posters, speeches, and so on.
On March 3, 1933, the famous Enabling Act was passed. It gave Hitler all the powers to sideline Parliament and rule by decree. All political parties and trade unions were banned except for the Nazi party and its affiliates.
● Super surveillance and security forces were created to control and order society in ways that the Nazis wanted.
● Apart from already existing regular police in green uniform and the SA or the Storm Troopers, some new forces were included: the Gestapo, the SS, criminal police and the Security Service. It was the extra-constitutional powers of these newly organized forces that gave the Nazi state its reputation as the most dreaded criminal state. The police forces acquired powers to rule with impunity.
● The Nazi party used the media carefully to win the support for the regime and popularize its worldview. Nazi ideas were spread through visual images, films, radios, posters, catchy slogans and leaflets.
● The Nazis made equal efforts to appeal to different sections of the population. They sought to win their support by suggesting that the Nazis alone could solve all their problems.
