🎭 The Great Deception: Nazis pretended to accept trade unions by celebrating International Workers' Day.
😲 Surprise!: Nazis quickly occupied union offices, seized funds, and arrested leaders.
🔄 Replacing & Controlling: German Labour Front (DAF) replaced independent trade unions, but it was more of a controlling instrument than representation.
🎯 Real-world example: Imagine if school clubs are taken over by the school board, and they control what activities are allowed, which members can join, and how funds are used.
Civil Service
🤝 Friendly Start: Many in the civil service saw Nazis as a return to the old ways and supported them.
🔄 Switcheroo: Nazis had their own plans. They replaced many officials with their own and had Nazi officers to oversee.
💼 Loyalty Oath: At a massive gathering, 10,000 lawyers pledged loyalty to Hitler.
🎯 Real-world example: It's like when a new boss comes into a company and brings in their own team, pushing out those who might oppose their methods.
Church & Nazi Relations
🕊️ Peace Offering: Nazis tried winning over the churches by suggesting they could co-exist.
🤝 The Concordat: Agreement between the papacy and Nazis. Nazis promised freedom and rights to the Catholic Church; in return, the Church would stay out of politics.
🙄 Broken Promises: Nazis had no intention to honor the agreement but used it to pacify the Church temporarily.
🎯 Real-world example: It's like making a promise to a friend to gain their trust, but having no intention of keeping it.
