All these assumptions may be true, but their will to regain and affirm their masculinity, transformed in mass murder acts that communicate to the entire world is not plausible because they were not alone in their acts. In the case of the German dictator, there was a whole administrative and political apparatus that backed him up and even a whole nation stood by his as long as he was convincing enough.
