Rising food and oil prices are not really rising, they value of the dollar and many other major currencies is falling.
definitely agreeing with that!
german hyperinflation took place in 1923 a little bit after the end of WWI. Hitler only came to power a decade later.
This is true of course, but without the inflation Hitler would likely never have come to power. The inflation laid the groundwork, encouraged the need for a scapegoat, pointed out a target, and instilled the need for something completely “new” in the common people. The people thought the solutions were temporary, another disaster was around the corner, and all it took was a good motivational speaker with a lot of promises and explanations (using a scapegoat) to rally enough support to start a rule of terror.
