I really hate these people. There are people out there who are spreading countless lies and misinformation about Hitler, who he was and what National Socialism is to where there is so much confusion about what it even means to be a National Socialist or the belief system involved or how it works. Here’s a quotemine that a lot of these Veronica Clark and TGSNT types like to throw out there:
“Pride in one’s own race – and that does not imply contempt for other races – is also a normal and healthy sentiment. I have never regarded the Chinese or the Japanese as being inferior to ourselves. They belong to ancient civilizations, and I admit freely that their past history is superior to our own. They have the right to be proud of their past, just as we have the right to be proud of the civilization to which we belong. Indeed, I believe the more steadfast the Chinese and the Japanese remain in their pride of race, the easier I shall find it to get on with them”
They use this as “proof” that Hitler disagreed with us, who are the more hardcore “modernized” National Socialists.
For example, here’s a passage where Hitler predicts that the Japanese (and other yellow races) will be a threat in the future, even though he did not view them as inferior (supposedly).
“We have to think in terms of centuries. Sooner or later there will have to be a showdown between the white and the yellow races”
But this would be a threat far in the future (think present day).
“There’s one thing Japan and Germany have in common; both of us need fifty to a hundred years for purposes of digestion: we for Russia, they for the Far East”
And btw, Hitler actually did consider Japan to be inferior, and he also considered the Aryan-Nordic race superior.
“If we were to divide mankind into three groups, the founders of culture, the bearers of culture, the destroyers of culture, only the Aryan could be considered as the representative of the first group. From him originate the foundations and walls of all human creation, and only the outward form and color are determined by the changing traits of character of the various peoples.”
“If beginning today all further Aryan influence on Japan should stop, assuming that Europe and America should perish, Japan’s present rise in science and technology might continue for a short time; but even in a few years the well would dry up, the Japanese special character would gain, but the present culture would freeze and sink back into the slumber from which it was awakened seven decades ago by the wave of Aryan culture. Therefore, just as the present Japanese development,.owes, its life to Aryan origin, long ago in the gray past foreign influence and foreign spirit awakened the Japanese culture of that time.”
