You are just confused about how parliamentary democracies with proportional representation work. What you are spreading – this simple truth – is also very much a myth. The whole story is complex and full of details. Was Hitler’s rise to power fully constitutional within the framework of the Weimar constitution? Probably not. But that’s a complex story where the details matter. One thing is true, and that is that Hitler took great pains to make it at least look constitutional and legitimate. His rise to power was obviously not a democratic one, if for his goons on the streets alone, but he did manage to get the necessary majorities in parliament as long as he needed them (and did that via working together with other, more conventional conservative parties, as is regularly necessary to get majorities in democracies with proportional representation and just normal – well, the stupidity of those other conservative parties in cooperating with Hitler is very much not normal, but they thought they could control him).
