Hans Sr. in general does not agree with Nazi ideals. As Nazism is run on hate, Hans is not a hateful person, however Hans only conforms to this society as to not become a target.

He hadn't got accepted, and he was old. Hans only supports the Nazi party to the extent that such support helps keep his family safe.

Hans was old and wasn't accepted that's what held him back. I don't think that Hans wants to be in the nazi party anyway because he still has different feelings towards nazis and if you cant fully be on board then you shouldn't be doing something you don't like.

Hans has held back on joining the nazi party because he doesnt agree that jews are bad he showed this by givin a jewish man marching through the town some bread and took the jewish mans punished. I don't beleive Hans wantes to be a Nazi unless it will keep his family safe.

Hans was disliked by the Nazi party because he has done things that don't follow their guidelines. I don't think he want's to join because even when he was allowed to join the Nazi party he seemed to have no interest.

hans got into some trouble/ made mistakes with the nazi party so he wasn't able to join then. but even now the nazi party would still accept him if he calls and ask if he is able to join yet but he hasn't. i think he doesn't want to be apart of the nazi party because he does not have the same vei...more

The event that held Hans back from joining the party was that he was old and hadn't got accepted into the party. I think that Hans doesn't truly want to become a nazi because his views are slightly different. He argues against some of the nazi views.
