Of course-- those pricks were nothing if not hypocritical. And the Neo-Aryans like Cliven Bundy are no better.
The Aryans were northwest Asian invaders/barbarians, who âestablishedâ themselves in the worldâs oldest civilization: India. There, they seized great knowledge to go on to create a racist civilization of cast system at the Hindus Valley, which later on influenced nearby regions, particularly the Persians now Iran. (Similar, and parallel, histories happened elsewhere â Egypt and Mesopotamia; just as the Romans influence in Europe, and Europe to the Americas.) Itâs just that the Nazis came to existence from delusions of scholarly fantasies and myths, rife with prejudice to minorities. Germans bought their crap because of uncertainties after WWI.

While I completely agree that there is no such thing as âArianâ outside of linguistics, the Naziâs didnât even invent the term in its racial usage. It had been around for quite a while in racist and social darwinist theories of the time, including the writings of Gobineau or Chamberlain (none of whom were German), when the Nazis picked it up for their own ideology.
Indeed, they werenât very original thinkers. Nothing in the Nazi ideology was novel in any way.

I did not know that, but am not shocked to hear it. Often, these memes are buried deep in culture in time and currency and have a long history.
So, without the German wives theyâd just be Ashke, I guess.
