This is what we were fighting

The racial policy of Nazi Germany was a set of policies and laws implemented in Nazi Germany (1933–45) based on a specific racist doctrine asserting the superiority of the Aryan race, which claimed scientific legitimacy. This was combined with a eugenics programme that aimed for racial hygiene by compulsory sterilization and extermination of those who they saw as Untermenschen ("sub-humans"), which culminated in the Holocaust.

Nazi policies labeled centuries-long residents in German territory who were not ethnic Germans such as Jews (understood in Nazi racial theory as a "Semitic" people of Levantine origins), Romanis (also known as Gypsies, an "Indo-Aryan" people of Indian Subcontinent origins), along with the vast majority of Slavs (mainly ethnic Poles, Serbs, Russians etc.), and most non-Europeans as inferior non-Aryan subhumans (i.e. non-Nordics, under the Nazi appropriation of the term "Aryan") in a racial hierarchy that placed the Herrenvolk ("master race") of the Volksgemeinschaft ("people's community") at the top.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7]

Basis of Nazi policies and constitution of the Aryan Master RaceEdit

The Aryan Master Race conceived by the Nazis graded humans on a scale of pure Aryans to non-Aryans (who were viewed as subhumans).[8] At the top of the scale of pure Aryans were Germans and other Germanic peoples, including the Dutch, Scandinavians, and the English.[8] Latins were held to be somewhat inferior, but were tolerated; the Italians and the French were thought to have a suitable admixture of Germanic blood.[9]

The feeling that Germans were the Aryan Herrenvolk (Aryan master race) was widely spread among the German public through Nazi propaganda and among Nazi officials throughout the ranks, in particular when Reichskommissariat Ukraine Erich Koch said:

We are a master race, which must remember that the lowliest German worker is racially and biologically a thousand times more valuable than the population here.

— Erich Koch, 5 March 1943[10]

The Nazis considered the Slavs as Non-Aryan Untermenschen ("sub-humans") who were to be enslaved and exterminated by Germans.[4] Slavic nations such as the Ukrainians, Czechs, Slovaks, Bulgarians and Croats who collaborated with Nazi Germany were still being perceived as not racially "pure" enough to reach the status of Germanic peoples, yet they were eventually considered ethnically better than the rest of the Slavs, mostly due to pseudoscientific theories about these nations having a considerable admixture of Germanic blood.[11] In countries where these people lived, there were according to Nazis small groups of non-Slavic German descendants. These people underwent a "racial selection" process to determine whether or not they were "racially valuable", if the individual passed they would be re-Germanised and forcefully taken from their families in order to be raised as Germans.[12][13][14] This secret plan Generalplan Ost ("Master Plan East") aimed at expulsion, enslavement and extermination of most Slavic people. Nazi policy towards them changed during World War II as a pragmatic means to resolve military manpower shortages: they were allowed, with certain restrictions, to serve in the Waffen-SS, in spite of being considered subhumans.[14] Nazi propaganda portrayed people in Eastern Europe with an Asiatic appearance to be the result of intermingling between the native Slavic populations and Asiatic or Mongolian races as sub-humans dominated by the Jews with the help of Bolshevism.[15] At the bottom of the racial scale of non-Aryans were Jews, ethnic Poles, ethnic Serbs and other Slavic people, Romani, and black people.[16] The Nazis originally sought to rid the German state of Jews and Romani by means of deportation (and later extermination), while blacks were to be segregated and eventually eliminated through compulsory sterilization.[16][17]

Did American racism influence the Nazi regimes racist laws?

Just eight days after the Reich Citizenship Law, the Law on the Protection of German Blood and German Honor, and the Reich Flag Law were formally proclaimed by Adolf Hitler, 45 Nazi lawyers sailed for New York under the auspices of the Association of National Socialist German Jurists. The trip was a reward for the lawyers, who had codified the Reich’s race-based legal philosophy. The announced purpose of the visit was to gain “special insight into the workings of American legal and economic life through study and lectures,” and the leader of the group was Ludwig Fischer. As the governor of the Warsaw District half a decade later, he would preside over the brutal order of the ghetto.

I go to work every day, as I have for over 40 years. I employ a decent number of hard working Americans (a true rainbow coalition of ethnicities) all of who go to work with me every day trying to make a better life for their community, themselves and their families. At the end of EACH DAY my government takes over 50% of my earnings and ‘invests’, or redistributes it, into causes and programs that THEY tell me are going to make a better life for me and the community at large (local, state, nation, and planet). Can someone please explain how this makes me a fascist?

This is America 2020. They don’t have to say why you are a fascist. They only have to say that you are a fascist.

The really funny part is that they don’t even know what the word means but they sure love tossing it around.

Yep. Great song. Great American folk singer. Fitting for the footage. 

 

(I'm aware you're being sarcastic. Your actual point is boring.)

 

 

Who said anything about disproving -- what are you babbling about? None of that was said. I'm talking about literally just that it was from Fox News, just that aspect of it. Jesus Christ you sensitive snowflake take it down a notch.

 

Don't post anything from Fox but post a ginned up video from MSNBC?

@TiberiusWhen did you lie? Was it when you claimed to be in your mid thirties or when you claimed that your father served in WW2? 

 

Oh and BTW, did you laugh at all of the German caused deaths when you read about them? 

Eat sh it

After the left has pocketed the concept of liberalism and turned the word into the opposite of its original meaning, the Antifa-movement uses a false terminology to hide its true agenda. While calling themselves “antifascist” and declaring fascism as the enemy, the Antifa itself is a foremost fascist movement.

The members of Antifa are not opponents to fascism but themselves its genuine representatives. Communism, Socialism, Fascism are united by the common band of anti-capitalism and anti-liberalism.

The Antifa movement is a fascist movement. The enemy of this movement is not fascism but liberty, peace, and prosperity.

It is not the actions but what they call themselves - you should know better.  They identify as antifascist so they are antifascist.  Their actions do not count.

All of my rants are just asking you to be aware of history, and your role in it :)

 

Finally a rational response.  All it took was for someone to call you out for using one of the bloodiest days in history to make a point about your crusade which has NOTHING do do with D-Day.

Fascism isn't a problem in America or the world anymore? The systemic oppression of minorities by imprisonment and state-sanctioned murder is no longer a problem? 

 

I thought you were a scholar. I'm just referring to the news events of the last few weeks that would indicate these are very much ongoing problems in America and elsewhere. You disagree?

 

Did you think history was "over"? You seem to be operating under the impression that history is not, in fact, ongoing. You seem to not understand that you are, in fact, part of history.

Again ***** you for using D-Day to push your agenda.

Yeah we definitely don't have any racists among us.

 

Did you share this with your many Black acquaintances/employees? Post it in your work communications, or publicly on your social feeds perhaps? Does anyone in your Real life know your Real opinions you're sharing with us here? Or are you too private, too embarrassed and ashamed? "Politics" and "race" are impolite for public, right?
