> imagine if Hitler fired civil servants

He did. It's called "Gleichschaltung", we learned about it in school. https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/guides/zgtyvcw/revision/4

You completely failed to understand the context of this point (unsurprisingly).

Every government has fired civil servants. The worst thing that Hitler did was not fire civil servants...he got up to some other stuff later that was worse.

Also, quoting a resource for children does not do you much credit. Quote an actual source if you are going to do it.
