Extremely stupid question actually. Morally would have been the right word.

A realistic snapshot of today's world. It is what it is - November 16, 2017. I guess up to date reality is a bitch for some folks.

Wasn't the Holocaust orchestrated by the government to show us the danger of getting too comfortable with the status quo?
Good lord.

The holocaust was genocide. Plain and simple. Kill the weeds so our pure-bred grass can grow bigger and better.

Drawing on misinterpreted references in the Rig Veda by Western scholars in the 19th century, the term "Aryan" was adopted as a racial category through the works of Arthur de Gobineau, whose ideology of race was based on an idea of blonde northern European "Aryans" who had migrated across the world and founded all major civilizations, before being degraded through racial mixing with local populations. Through the works of Houston Stewart Chamberlain, Gobineau's ideas later influenced the Nazi racial ideology which saw "Aryan peoples" as innately superior to other putative racial groups.
