>>As for the "cultural nature" of Germans, <<

Okay, so I garbled my meaning. Maybe 'psyche' was the term I needed.

According to this 1997 source, in 1780, 75% were English or Irish and the strong German immigration began occurring in the Civil War era.... 22% of the US today had German origins.

Of course, the simplest explanation of anti-immigrant feeling that could give rise to fascism is the sheer numbers immigrating at a particular time: sru.edu

Competition for jobs and control of neighborhoods could make a population ripe for exploitation by those with a fascist agenda.
