What Is Hitler's Dehumanization Of Non-Aryan Culture

Hitler wanted to create a pure race that suited his ideologies. A perfect race with blue eyes and blonde hair. This idea is well defined when Mark’s Mother says, “ A pure Aryan race, so he had to get rid of anyone who didn’t fit his idea, anyone who was different… “. – Pg 23

Both Hitler and Sanger believed in a Superior race. To them, a superior race is the race that has superior genetics over all other races. To believe in a superior race is to believe that no other race is as good. Hitler believed that Aryans were the superior race. Aryans were Nordic people, being from Sweden and Norway with pure blonde hair and blue eyes. Hitler believed if you did not have the blonde hair or blue eyes you were a lower class, as Aryans were the Master Race. Hitler, to create a Master Race, began having those with Aryan features reproduce with each other. Sanger believed in her own form of a superior race. To her anyone with birth defects or a different skin tone from her white skin was unclean. Sanger claims that only the white men and women who were healthy should breed and raise strong young. Minorities or

Hitler believed that the German people were part of an 'Aryan race,' a superior group that should be kept pure to fulfill their mission of ruling the world. He felt that the Jewish people were 'sub-human,' when in actuality they were virtually the same as his 'Aryan race.' Not only did Hitler have a personal hatred toward the Jewish people, but he also blamed them for 'stabbing Germany in the back' after Germany's defeat in World War I. Hitler used them as scapegoats because they were a minority and were easy to put the blame on. 'Historians agree that the Holocaust resulted from a confluence of various factors in a complex historical situation. That anti-Semitism festered throughout the centuries in European culture is centrally important; the Jews were (and are) a minority civilization in a majority environment. In periods of crisis, instead of searching for the solution of

The Nazis believed in ‘Aryan’ superiority, this belief contributed to the Holocaust. In the years of Nazi rule before World War II, The Nazi group organized policies of discrimination and separation targeting especially German Jews. The Nazi political group believed in one race Aryans, they believed the Aryans were superior to all races. Hitler was an anti-Semitic, he believed Jews were the main corrupter of culture, society and Germany. Non-Aryans were seen as impure and evil.

He believed that “Aryans” were the purified race. He pronounced that his race must remain pure in order to one day take over the world. For Hitler, the ideal "Aryan" was blond, blue-eyed, and tall. Although Hitler was not even close to looking like an Aryan, he showed the love he had for them. His mind-set was very racist and discriminatory. He had the idea of a “master race” and he discriminated anyone that wasn’t a part of it. He believed that the Germanic people were the only purified race and everyone else was filthy. The Nazis began to put their ideology into practice with the support of German scientists who believed that the human race could be improved by limiting the reproduction of people considered "inferior." The only way Hitler could carry on his “master race” was by getting rid of every non-aryan. He went on a hunting spree for every Jew, Gypsy, homo-sexual, etc. He thought they were not pure and didn’t belong on earth, and this expresses the hatred and how discriminatory he was towards anyone that wasn’t German. By doing this, the Nazis grew in power and had the German society following them, which shows the control and power of Hitler’s words and actions. When Hitler and the Nazis came to power, these beliefs became the government ideology and were spread in publicly displayed posters, on the radio, in movies, in classrooms, and in newspapers. Hitler traveled in planes from city to city, spreading the word of the Aryan-race. He spoke to radio stations, educated children in school, posted pictures and many posters, but he mostly gave brainwashing speeches that tricked most of the German Society to follow him. He used blind obedience to grow his idea. Although most Germans followed out of fear, others seemed to resist and go against

Adolf Hitler and his Nazi party used nationalism to great effect in Germany that spured the Second World World. After WWI, many Germans blamed the new government for accepting the unfair treaty as conditions became miserable. People who could not find jobs began to drift into the Communist and National Socialist parties established by Hitler. They decided that it was the necessary solution. In 1933, Hitler came to power as dictator of Germany and preached a racist brand of fascism. He promised to end the humiliating conditions caused by the German defeat in WWI. He knew how to win people's obedience and trust, through their fears and insecurities. He almost immediately got Germany back into the factories and began secretly building up army and weapons. His real motives were to expand German territory and dominate Europe and the whole world that became the prelude to another war.

Nazism developed several theories concerning races. The Nazis claimed to scientifically measure a strict hierarchy of human race. Once firmly in power, Hitler’s plans for the ending of the struggle between the Aryan race and the “inferior races” was set to work. These races feared as a biological threat to the master race purity. At the bottom of this hierarchy were “parasitic” races which were perceived to be dangerous to society. Hitler’s Nazi theory also claimed that his Aryan race is superior to all other races, that a

Hitler and the Nazis used propaganda to suppress the Jews’ freedoms and human rights. Films portrayed Germans as powerful and mighty while showing the Jews to be “subhuman creatures” (United States Holocaust Memorial Museum 1). German newspapers portrayed Jews in their cartoons as anti semitic caricatures while radios played Hitler’s manipulative speeches all over Germany. By dehumanizing Jewish people through propaganda, Hitler was able to encourage Germans to support the Nazis and look down on the Jews. Without propaganda, less people would have been motivated to support Hitler.

“Every racial crossing leads inevitably sooner or later to the decline of the hybrid product as long as the higher element of this crossing is itself still existent in any kind of racial unity. The danger for the hybrid product is eliminated only at the moment when the last higher racial element is bastardized.” (Manheim). This quote is important because before concentration camps were created, this quote shows in the future about how Hitler wanted to exterminate the “un-pure” race. Through Hitler’s eyes the basis of social judgment was a three-part categorization of human beings. Aryans were at the top and they were really the only ones, in his mind, that were able to create civilizations. They were classified as culture creating. The next category was culture bearing which were people like the Latinas and Asians that could only maintain culture. The culture destroying people, Hitler believed were the Non- Aryans, which included Jews, Gays, Gypsies, Jehovah's Witnesses, Blacks, and even the Handicapped. He believed that they could only destroy civilizations and that Germany had been infected with non-Aryans. He felt like they were sub-human and that they could only threaten his perfect race. So to exterminate this imperfect race he put them in concentration camps, exiled them on the street, or forced them to work on a slave farms. Most of them ended up in concentration camps. Above the gates of all concentration

One of Hitler’s many ambitions for Germany was to achieve total Aryan supremacy. Hitler wanted to make all Germans perfect physical specimens. All of them tall and strong with blue eyes and blond hair though he himself was short, with brown eyes and hair. Hitler claimed that the Germans were the purest Aryans and therefore superior to all other peoples. Hitler made sure that all Germans knew this, he told the German people what they wanted to hear, that they were in fact the master race and that they were superior to any other persons. Although many were opposed to Hitler’s idea of Aryan supremacy the German people supported him enthusiastically regardless.

Introduction: Adolf Hitler was the leader of the German Aryans during World War Two, Hitler was the Chancellor of Germany and his main goal was to create a master race to take over the world. Adolf Hitler was born on April 20, 1889 in a tavern in Austria. Hitler was born into his family with 5 others siblings. His Father Alois Schickelgruber and Mother Klara Potzl changed all of their family members last names to Hitler because, both of Adolf’s Grandparents, Aunts, Uncles, and most of his family members were Jewish. Adolf’s father died when he was thirteen years old, his siblings abandoned him, and he was left alone with his mother and he had to work to take care of her. But Shortly after Alois died, his mother, Klara died aswell and he was all alone. Although Hitler wanted to create a master race, he violated his own standards, and in the end, he took his own life.

To sum up, Hitler 's Germany lived on a balanced diet of economics and ideology. On the one hand, Hitler 's ideology called for living space for his great Aryan race. However, on the other hand, economics were the backbone of building an army large enough to acquire it. This resulted in Hitler conquering many new lands for his cause. First there was

Hitler’s “Aryan” Race – Hitler wanted an “ideal race” and wanted Germany to be only people who were Aryan-like. He did not want any Jews or foreigners. “Hitler’s Aryan Race” was his idea of what a race should be. Hitler wanted all of the genes that were not wanted to be killed, because he did not want those genes to mess up his “perfect race” (USHMM).

According to Kagan, “Hitler’s long-range plans included germinating in lands inhabited by people racially akin to the Germans.” (Kagan, 2001) He wanted to turn these lands in colonies/empires. He also intended to recapture territory that was lost to Poland in World War One.

Cultural relativism and subjective relativism was pretty interesting to me, after reading this chapter I sort of having a better understanding of why have arguments at times. As humans, we are stuck in our ways and we think that our ways and actions are always right, but that is not always the case other people might not see it the way we do. Being humans we have to understand that everyone has their own way of learning, and reading this chapter gave me a new perspective on that. In my opinion using Hitler as an example was not the best choice. I will never understand why people Hitler thought that taking someone else life is the right thing to do, but who am I to disagree with their way of thinking. Unfortunately, Hitler is not the only person
