A good article on the evolution of Nazi race theories. Originally the Nazis were somewhat receptive to Nordicism but when the cat was let out of the bag -- that many if not most Germans were/are not Nordic -- the Nazis suddenly found Nordicism intolerable, according to the author of that article. Hitler subscribed to an "Aryanist" theory of race because, as a non-thinker and non-intellectual, he needed a vague ideology to immunize himself and his ideas from rational criticism. The more the Nazis distanced themselves from Nordicism the more (relatively speaking) they were able to appreciate the achievements of others. For example, it was no longer believed, as the race theories evolved, that Nordics civilized China. Interestingly, the author mentions that Nordicist theories proliferated in Germany as a response to the humiliation and lack of standing in the nation after WWI: it was a form of overcompensation. Here is the article, National Socialism And Race, by Dr. A. James Gregor.

Good post, but its going to fall on deaf ears.Those who hold true to the belief of "aryanism" are more likely to idolize the propaganda art. heck it looks cool.but also very homosexual.(ha) another good reference on "aryan" super boy belief is the "ss" themselfs not everyone could be part of it because they "germans" did not all fit there criteria skull measurments,facial fetures,hair and eye color ect ect ect.
