Now what is a Volkskanzler? In itself it should be a Kanzler, so a part of a democratic government, for the Volk, so the people. And I never actually heard about Hitler calling himself that, only that he was the Reichskanzler, Führer etc.

Edit:

After the end of the dictatorship, the original meaning was transferred both directly and indirectly to well-known democratic state politicians such as Ludwig Erhard and Bruno Kreisky.

So those democratic politicians are Hitlers too now?

no, they aren't, because they were leftists trying to reclaim the word so they obviosly weren't nazis, the people using it nowdays are far right, so it's not really obvios wether they are nazis or not.
