The map looks like this because the Catholics voted for the Centre Party, which joined the Nazis in passing the Enabling Act that handed power to Hitler, not because Catholics could see Hitler for what he was.
en.wikipedia.org
Hitler's speech on the occasion of that act's passage included nods to the Catholic support:
>The struggle against the materialistic ideology and for the erection of a true people's community (Volksgemeinschaft) serves as much the interests of the German nation as of our Christian faith. ...The national Government, seeing in Christianity the unshakable foundation of the moral and ethical life of our people, attaches utmost importance to the cultivation and maintenance of the friendliest relations with the Holy See. ...The rights of the churches will not be curtailed; their position in relation to the State will not be changed.

>Pius XI watched the rising tide of totalitarianism with alarm and delivered three papal encyclicals challenging the new creeds: against Italian Fascism, "Non abbiamo bisogno" (1931; 'We do not need (to acquaint you)'); against Nazism, "Mit brennender Sorge" (1937; 'With deep concern') and against atheist communism, "Divini redemptoris" (1937; 'Divine Redeemer'). He also challenged the extremist nationalism of the Action Française movement and anti-semitism in the United States.

Because the Center party catered to Catholics specifically.
Because Zentrum was a catholic party.
If you're catholic you must vote for a catholic.

Catholic=Nazi
t. changes the subject to the Pope because he can't challenge the facts in Germany
Nazi Germany was a very Christian country. Its anti-Semitism was rooted in Church teachings.Thus, it's not surprising that inspired by the the New Testament and centuries of Church tradition, Saints and Church fathers, and Popes , the clergy in Nazi Germany merely added to the existing Christian anti-Semitic literature
Everything Hitler did to the Jews, all the horrible, unspeakable misdeeds, had already been done to the smitten people before by the Christian churches ... The isolation of the Jews into ghetto camps, the wearing of the yellow star, the burning of Jewish books and finally, the burning of the people - Hitler learned it all from the church.
However, the church burned Jewish women and children alive, while Hitler granted them a quicker death, choking them first with gas.
I(and i'm not alone) don't care about how the kikes were killed, they re subhumans and only death can redeem them.
A Catholic cannot be a commie or a nazi sympathizer. Get that through your thick skull.
Also, from the same wiki article you posted:
>At that time, the Centre Party was weakened by massive defections by party members. Loyal party members, in particular civil servants, and other Catholic organisations were subject to increasing reprisals, despite Hitler's previous guarantees. The party was also hurt by a declaration of the German bishops that, while maintaining their opposition to Nazi ideology, modified the ban on cooperation with the new authorities.

See There is nothing Christian about Nazi Germany and Hitler was a darwinist occultist who admired Islam.

>It depends.
Is that the same for most ideologies?
Mussolini was raised by a devoutly Catholic mother and an anti-clerical father. His mother Rosa had him baptized into the Roman Catholic Church, and took her children to services every Sunday. His father never attended. Mussolini regarded his time at a religious boarding school as punishment, compared the experience to hell, and "once refused to go to morning Mass and had to be dragged there by force."
Mussolini would become anti-clerical like his father. As a young man, he "proclaimed himself to be an atheist and several times tried to shock an audience by calling on God to strike him dead." He believed that science had proven there was no god, and that the historical Jesus was ignorant and mad. He considered religion a disease of the psyche, and accused Christianity of promoting resignation and cowardice.

Extremist ones.
Mussolini was an admirer of Friedrich Nietzsche. According to Denis Mack Smith, "In Nietzsche he found justification for his crusade against the Christian virtues of humility, resignation, charity, and goodness." He valued Nietzsche's concept of the superman, "The supreme egoist who defied both God and the masses, who despised egalitarianism and democracy, who believed in the weakest going to the wall and pushing them if they did not go fast enough." On his 60th birthday, Mussolini received a gift from Hitler of a complete twenty-four volume set of the works of Nietzsche.
Mussolini made vitriolic attacks against Christianity and the Catholic Church, which he accompanied with provocative remarks about the consecrated host, and about a love affair between Christ and Mary Magdalene. He denounced socialists who were tolerant of religion, or who had their children baptized, and called for socialists who accepted religious marriage to be expelled from the party. He denounced the Catholic Church for "its authoritarianism and refusal to allow freedom of thought …" Mussolini's newspaper, La Lotta di Classe, reportedly had an anti-Christian editorial stance.
What is extremism?
Isn't it solely defined by the political context of the current times?
It depends wether Catholic social teaching is undermined or not.
> "Secure at first food and clothing, and the kingdom of God will come to you of itself

Your addressing the symptoms of totalitarianism and not the cause.
Fascism is the old top dogs ruling by new means of terror.
>Fascism is the old top dogs ruling by new means of terror.
Surely young intellectuals with radical views are the old top dogs, right?

This is a history board. Even history has some standards.
Like Fascism, Catholicism has a single leader, who demands absolute Obedience.
