Why exactly do the liberals who are ignorant of WWII history think the Nazis believed "white people" were his idea of a superior race?

I don't understand why some of the most vocal liberals always use the term "white people" when referring to the type of people Hitler thought were superior.

His #1 enemies that he wanted to commit a genocide against were Jews and Slavs. Both of which are considered "white people" by the standard of whiteness that exists in American racism. Slavs may be disadvantaged in Europe, but theyre white in America. Same goes for Jews.

Hitler may have viewed the so-called "Aryan people" (What he really meant was Germanic people) as being the most superior, but.... since when are they the only white people on the planet?

His #1 victims, like I previously stated, were Slavs and Jews. Both of which are white. Further proving the claim that "The Nazis ideology were about preserving the white race" is just factually incorrect.

Maybe it's because that in Hitlers' writings (like "Mein Kampf") he blames Yews for bastardising and introducing impurities (non-white blood) to the white race. Which makes the white race weak, in his delusional reasoning.

Yes, Hitler saw the Aryan and by extend the Germanic race superior. He never said they were the only white people. Considering that he talks about "the french" and their whiteness. He wasn't about the preservation of the white race, he was about the preservation of the "Germanic nation" (People or Folk).

Also, Hitler didn't give a fuck on what Americans considered white in 2022.

@Kwek00 "(non-white blood)"

Are you sure that's the term he used? Because I'm willing to wager he meant Germanic

@MickRogers You'll loose that wager.

The black-haired Jewish youth lies in wait for hours on end, satanically glaring at and spying on the unsuspicious girl whom he plans to seduce, adulterating her blood and removing her from the bosom of her own people. The Jew uses every possible means to undermine the racial foundations of a subjugated people. In his systematic efforts to ruin girls and women he strives to break down the last barriers of discrimination between him and other peoples. The Jews were responsible for bringing negroes into the Rhineland, with the ultimate idea of bastardizing the white race which they hate and thus lowering its cultural and political level so that the Jew might dominate. For as long as a people remain racially pure and are conscious of the treasure of their blood, they can never be overcome by the Jew. Never in this world can the Jew become master of any people except a bastardized people.

[...] On a spiritual training ground of that kind it is not possible for the bourgeois forces to develop the strength which is necessary to carry on the fight against the organized might of Marxism. Indeed they have never seriously thought of doing so. Though these parliamentary quacks who represent the white race are generally recognized as persons of quite inferior mental capacity, they are shrewd enough to know that they could not seriously entertain the hope of being able to use the weapon of Western Democracy to fight a doctrine for the advance of which Western Democracy, with all its accessories, is employed as a means to an end. Democracy is exploited by the Marxists for the purpose of paralysing their opponents and gaining for themselves a free hand to put their own methods into action. [...]

Only in France there exists to-day more than ever before a profound accord between the views of the stock-exchange, controlled by the Jews, and the chauvinistic policy
pursued by French statesmen. This identity of views constitutes an immense, danger for Germany. And it is just for this reason that France is and will remain by far the most dangerous enemy. The French people, who are becoming more and more obsessed by negroid ideas, represent a threatening menace to the existence of the white race in Europe, because they are bound up with the Jewish campaign for world-domination. For the contamination caused by the influx of negroid blood on the Rhine, in the very heart of Europe, is in accord with the sadist and perverse lust for vengeance on the part of the hereditary enemy of our people, just as it suits the purpose of the cool calculating Jew who would use this means of introducing a process of bastardization in the very centre of the European Continent and, by infecting the white race with the blood of an inferior stock, would destroy the foundations of its independent existence.

@Kwek00 OK.... so it seems that Hitler viewed Jews as people who maliciously tried to "corrupt the white race" but... that doesn't really address anything I've said.

Even in the same book you're quoting from, Hitler stated he did recognize the Jews as being German at first until he decided to stare at one for a long period of time and ponder "if this creature is really human." Yet... Jews became the primary target for the genocide. Even moreso than the "non-white races."

I mean, a big part of the reason why the Nazis made Jews wear the star of David was because, at face value, a lot of Jews did seem indistinguishable from other whites and they needed a way to distinguish among them. Further concluding that the Nazis racism was based on something more than just simply skin color.

@MickRogers Well, maybe this is a bit more clear to you know:

I don't understand why some of the most vocal liberals always use the term "white people" when referring to the type of people Hitler thought were superior.

Since he did seem really fascinated by the white race. And by extend, the Germanic race who he believed had remnants of Aryan blood inside of it.

Even in the same book you're quoting from, Hitler stated he did recognize the Jews as being German at first until he decided to stare at one for a long period of time and ponder "if this creature is really human." Yet... Jews became the primary target for the genocide. Even moreso than the "non-white races."

The first targets of the NAZIs were internal and external. Internal, because fascism believes in the idea of order and purity. Even in the political sense, there should be no politics inside the body politic (the German nation). Therefore, all dissident voices that didn't agree with the new imposed NAZI norm, had to go. We are talking about left-wingers, liberals of all kinds, transvestites, gays, adicts, handicaped people, etc.. Then you have the groups that are perceived external to the Germanic Nation, which are all perceived as a thread. This conception is defined by the NAZIs themselves, and the NAZI doctrine defines "Germanic" through bloodline that can be traced back to the German soil. If you can't trace your ancestry back, you are not Germanic in the eyes of a NAZI. Prime target? The Jew, who was quite literally the scapegoat for everything that could be perceived as an ill of Germanic society. The Jew was blamed for: Socialism, Marxism, Communism, Social-Democracy, Liberalism, the enlightenment, WW1, Versailles, the perceived decline of culture, the perceived decline of purity, ... etc. NAZIs ,just like all antisemites, had an entire conspiracy theory about Jews, a group of people that were all out to get them. Jews in NAZI ideology, were never Germanic, they are just an impurity that also needs to suffer their wrath for getting the blame of everything they don't like. And if the NAZIs didn't remove the Jews first, the Jews would eventually remove them. It's a them or us kind of framework. What these people looked like, was just as important to the NAZIs, as 2022 conceptions of whiteness. NAZI racial theory is linked to bloodlines and soil. It's not not primairily based on looks.

I mean, a big part of the reason why the Nazis made Jews wear the star of David was because, at face value, a lot of Jews did seem indistinguishable from other whites and they needed a way to distinguish among them.

They also talk about groups of people that are clearly distinguishable by outlook. But even if someone looks Germanic, has largely Germanic ancestry, ... those couple of percentages that can be labeled Slavic, African, Jewish, ... etc. Will grant that person the concept of being "impure" (Non-Germanic, Non-White). Because NAZI racial theory is linked ot bloodlines and soil and not primairy on looks, that doesn't stop them from labeling themselves "white". And perceiving that what is labeled impure as a thread to the white race.
