No, the National Socialists never identified the institutions which destroyed their country because those institutions were the Socialist ones they seized, expanded, weaponized, and then suicided Germany with. Their delusions of grandeur were based on their Socialist meta-narrative and were inseparable from their ideas. The mass murder of innocents was, again, a core component of their Socialist meta-narrative and was unavoidable.
The National Socialists were never an over-reaction, as Hitler himself had attempted to portray the NSDAP as a more reformist or even centrist party that could ensure that Socialism could be done properly. His murder of Rohm was a desperate attempt to prove to the German people that the NSDAP could finally be moderated in it's violence, but still create a working Socialist country.
The NSDAP were the German people deluding themselves into thinking that they could get a form of soft-revolutionary Socialism right this time, and destroying 15 million German lives and every single major city for an inevitable failure.
sounds like you know your Nazi history better than I do. do you have any recommended reading?
So, I'm not saying I've read all of these, but I've read some of the older ones, and the rest are cited in some good YouTube essayists. You

much obliged!
The shitty part to all of this is that we clearly need a better meta documentation of Hitler life, let alone the Interwar and Pre-war periods. (I personally refer to 1917-1921 as the Great Communist Revolt, seriously, take a look at how many revolutions, riots, strikes, race riots, and conflicts take place and see how each of them are treated distinctly from one another with no relation; despite all of them being openly Leftist)
Historians themselves fall into the Boomer Truth regime, which actively protects Socialism from criticism, despite the fact that Hitler is & was a revolutionary Socialist for almost his whole life. When you dig into specifics the meta-narrative falls apart, but you have to do it on each topic.
It's like asking someone to prove that there's Left-wing political influence in video games, but you can only do it by reviewing and playing each game to denote each instance of political slant each time, and Leftist domination of game jams, academia, developer conferences, gaming media, and corporate politics are all instantly dismissed.
