Hitler's Taking Control

Civil rights are the rights that people have all around the world. They are the guidelines which state how everyone should be treated. Some of these rights are the right to vote, the right to freedom of speech, and the right to protection from wrongful discrimination.

Why might some of Hitler's measures in abolishing personal freedoms and Civil Rights be seen by some as as a positive, or necessary move?

Because when the Reichstag was burned down, Hitler blamed it on the communists, whom he disliked, so the German people thought that they should be punished for what they did, and that the punishment should be the abolishment of the freedoms and Civil Rights of the communists. They believed that the ones like the tapping into phone calls was necessary to prevent enemies like the communists from communicating with eachother and rising against the government.
