Consider me TIL, though I believe Nazi Germany was more into Nietzche’s ubermensch theory. He was Hitlers favorite philosopher and where the idea of the Aryan race was galvanised. From an outward perspective looking in, to me it seems the US are trying their own new mix of that, this “Jim Crow Law” and an extreme capitalist society. The US is using race as a means to invoke fear into their supporters who are currently in an abusive domestic relationship and are the ones taking the hits.
