How do you know that to be true? Especially as I'm not sure which German word you are referring to when you speak of 'people' if you are referring to any at all.
I generally don't like "taboo this word" but you could make a good case for tabooing "people" here.
If by "people", DanielC meant "entities which have rights and whose rights deserve to be respected", then of course Hitler thought he wasn't killing people, but that is just vacuously true.
That assumes that Hitler believed in the principle of respecting rights in the first place. I don't think that's true.
