Sort of.

But Germans didn't have a straight up-or-down vote on they wanted the guy with the mustache to be their leader before he took over.

If they had, would he really have won?

And being able to vote the boss man out is generally recognized as part of democracy nowadays.

They they didn't that opportunity.

They knew... Everyone in Germany knew that voting for the National Socialist party meant they would seize power. The Reich stag fire sped things up. They knew that Hitler would kill the Jews, they knew Voting for NASDP would mean Hitler would take the reigns.

German culture is authoritarian, regimented and fascist. Always has been. Liberty and freedom are impossible there. They love the government and worship it. Even today, Germany is a totalitarian society with that same Nazi like mindset. Its just done differently under a different pair of jack boots. Multicultural, vegan ones but with the same mindset of godless tyranny.
