Western leaders didn't mind that guy in the 1930s for a good while until his dehumanizing got too carried away. After financing him, supporting him and allowing him to gain power for a good while, it then began to get too difficult to get him out of power .... then things got carried away .... and you know the rest.

Don't forget IBM building the systems to efficiently catalog and murder the jews in the holocaust, and pretty much every non-jewish-owned corporation being perfectly happy empowering fascism for profit — no different to today, with most major corporations still "donating" to R's and every other fascist or dictator globally.

Turns out capitalism doesn't give two shits about freedom or democracy and only worships the almighty dollar...

Seems like no one cared so much about the dehumanizing (a lot of which was hidden and not fully discovered until later) and instead it was more about stopping his massive land grab.
