Think of the press as a great keyboard on which the government can play.

After Stalingrad Hitler increasingly withdrew from public view almost never appearing in public and rarely even broadcasting. Goebbels used modern propaganda techniques to ideologically prepare the German people for aggressive warfare. A judgment is being carried out on the Jews which is barbaric but fully deserved.

Goebbels despised capitalism viewing it as having Jews at its core and he stressed the need for the Nazis to emphasize both a proletarian and national character. During World War II Goebbels increased his power and influence through shifting alliances with other Nazi leaders. In this position he put his propaganda skills to full use combating the Social Democratic Party of Germany and Communist Party of Germany and seeking to gain their working class supporters.
