In what ways did the Nazi state seek to establish total control over its people?

The Nazis established control over its people by various means:

→ They used different propaganda through posters or films to glorify their
behaviour.

→ Media was carefully used to win support for the regime and
popularize it.

→ Nazism worked on the minds of the people, tapped their emotions
and turned their hatred and anger against those marked as
‘undesirable’.

→ Special surveillance and security forces to control and order society in
ways that the Nazis wanted, was created.

→ The police forces had powers to rule with impunity. Genocide also
created an atmosphere of fear and repression which helped them to
establish total control over its people.
