You might have mentioned that the Kaiser's prime minister, Bismarck, instituted Germany's social welfare system which he called Staatssozialismus. What you wrote was pretty simplistic and misleading. BTW the Nazis did not repeal any of these welfare state policies.

Hence the whole back stabbing sentiment that Hitler played on. The aristocracy also got blamed along with the large companies who worked hand in glove with the aristocracy.

Actually Hitler claimed the Jews had stabbed Germany in the back. He didn't target the aristocracy per se and even appealed to much of it:
