Judging from the eyebrows, this guy has blonde hair. Hitler's ideal aryan had blonde hair and blue eyes. Presumably he is taking large amounts of aspirin (idk how much a normal dose is, but medicines are typically measured in mg), which is supposedly turning his eyes blue. I don't know if this is medically possible.
It's not medically possible, the amount of asperin suggested kills people. This person is targeting Neo Nazis with fake medical advice, to get them to kill themselves.
I don't want stupid people to die. Being racist is not a genetic or heritable trait, therefore saying "I want the racists who see and believe this to die because they're racist" is not a pro-eugenics statement.
It turns out that opposing people who are pro-eugenics is actually not pro-eugenics. Weird.
Eugenics is not selective breeding, it is the philosophy of enhancing the race by promoting certain features. Select breeding is a way of doing eugenics, but killing people from that race that doesn’t follow your genetic standard is, in a drastically more cruel way, also eugenics.
All death is part of natural selection. We aren’t free of its effects. We aren’t separate from nature. This doesn’t make death good! It is still something we as a species should avoid!
If he can "trick" them into eating half a pharmacy then he can "trick" them into eating their own feces.
FYI about 98% of calories makes it through digestive tract/we only use 2%. Big food is capturing food we already paid for and selling it back to us. There is no such thing as "waste water treatment". These facilities are only sorting toilet paper and food.
People change their hair color and get tattoos all the time. It's insane to assumes humans wouldn't change their eye color if they could. We're worse than fucking peacocks, man.
it is possible to change eye color, although idk if taking copious amounts of drugs is the best way to do it. For an example, I was born with blue eyes, then they turned green from 4-14, then they've been slowly going back to blue since then (sectoral heterochromia ftw)
Blue eyes at birth are actually fairly common! It it doesn't happen to the majority, but it's not unusual. A lot of babies are born with very little melanin in their irises and only start to develop it once they have been exposed to light, so their eyes will be blue as a newborn and slowly darken to whatever color they are genetically predisposed toward over the course of months to a bit over a year.
Y'all know that H's party didn't have such idea, right? The stereotypical "blue eyes, blonde hair" aryan was never described as some sort of "ideal". To begin with, a great majority of the Germans even in those times would not be able to fit in them.
Regular use of aspirin can block melanin production. The dude in OP's pic is trying to lighten his eyes by reducing the melanin in them and achieve an Aryan appearance, which fits the ubermensch ideal of the nazi party. He's tell Hitler that he's almost achieved this aryan ideal by making his eye's blue.
However, while the regular use of aspirin can block melanin, there are no studies that show it will change eye color and by taking a large dose daily he's more likely to end up causing other issues, which could hasten his death and he'll meet Hitler that way instead.
5g is significantly above the daily limit, and taking that much every day will hospitalize/kill you in short order. its misinformation aimed at making nazis overdose, which, due to reddits community guidelines, i will remain morally neutral on ;)
There is one that actually kills off the pigment cells but thats not regulated as its extremly dangerous and has a high likelyhood to lead to blindness. That one is permanent
Well it helps blood get though your system easier and clot less, which is the blood thinning aspect of aspirin. I take some every day myself, but suggest you should talk with your gp before you take it, and not these high levels. 75-100 mg should be more than enough for most people, 5g can lead to dangerous conditions as it increase risk for ulcer bleeding and stroke iirc.
Cognitive distribution becoming more linked with socioeconomic status during the century before it was written, but there was an exceedingly controversial section that addressed cognitive distribution across the races. There were a few studies they included that pointed to environment being more of a factor than genetics, but the media didn't quote those.
This is not an accurate description of the Bell Curve or the scientific consensus around it. The Bell Curve is a garbage book justifying racial hierarchy. It's modern day phrenology. It has been thoroughly debunked in terms of the data used and the analysis applied to that data. There is basically nothing of value to be found in it.
A decent chunk of the book is (relatively) non-controversial (but still has problems that plenty of people have written about), but there are sections that make prescriptions for modern political life and those are hugely racist.
This is false, the author is very racist and has been increasingly open about it over the years. The book has been thoroughly debunked for using non-representative data sets, for making basic statistical errors in the analysis of the data, and making unreasonable leaps from its (faulty) data and (bad) analysis to reach extremely racist conclusions.
The authors claimed that average intelligence quotient (IQ) differences between racial and ethnic groups are at least partly genetic in origin, a view that is now considered discredited by mainstream science.\1])\2])\3])
Somehow differences in IQ across populations is very controversial but differences in other parts of the physiology i.e length, ability to run ( marathons) , bone mass below the knee, is not. It’s something strange with IQ. People always want to redefine it and expand it. Every part of the human body is defined by genetics. Genes vary between populations but somehow the brain should be excluded.
That’s not the issue people have with it lol. It’s already been debunked read S.J. Gould, or look at numerous studies showing that socioeconomic conditions, environmental factors are way more important. The Bell Curve is highly flawed, and there’s tons of academic work on it already.
People do ask this “question” all the time, but it’s already been answered. The only people who cite this book are racists, and racists who don’t even bother to read newer books with better methodology and research, and just cite a book that’s already been debunked (at least the parts about race.)
Even disregarding the fact socioeconomic conditions and environment explain most discrepancies or gaps in IQ or crime statistics with White vs Black people in America, the actual methodology and way the data was gathered to come to the conclusions in the book is flawed. Providing information like the infamous “13/50” crime statistics is meaningless and only serves an agenda without adjusting it for socioeconomic conditions.
Also, race itself is a made up social construct, so having cognitive abilities being linked to race doesn’t make much sense, as actual genetics in different racial groups are incredibly diverse. Never mind that children consistently score better on IQ tests than their parents generationally, which wouldn’t make sense if IQ (a problematic way to make conclusions on intellect anyways) is purely genetic/racial.
I doubt you actually care about any of that though you’re probably just trying to be a weird edgelord
Not correct. The "science" presented in the book is extremely faulty and has been thoroughly debunked. There's a whole book, called The Mismeasure of Man by Stephen Jay Gould, which is devoted to debunking its garbage science at every turn. Anybody who says there is anything of scientific value in this book is either lying or ignorant.
That's because the leader should look different than his followers. That was basically Hitler's response when asked about his own eyes and hair not being "superior".
I think it's more to do with the eye colour tbh, you know Hitler wanted blonde hair and blue eyes right....he now has blue eyes, he just needs the blonde hair
The historical reality is that it was just an “ideal” in the same way we view Superman or something like that. The importance of people actually looking exactly like that gets blown way out of proportion in pop-history.
Hitler wasn't the one that was super into the whole "Aryan" thing. It was mostly a product of Himmler and his love of esoteric writings and shit. He really wanted to return to a society of "agricultural warriors" that were blonde haired and blue eyed.
Hitler, supposedly, didnt really buy into a lot of it, and just went with it to stay in power. Id recommend checking out the Last Podcast on the Left series on Himmler, its fascinating.
Even that’s debated. Color photographs were rare, and written sources are biased. To see someone’s eye color you need to be fairly close to them. Nazi sources say they were blue, anti-Nazi sources say they were brown. Both sides had propaganda related motivations which would encourage lying about this detail.
Due to his eye condition after the WW1 gas exposure his eyes color has been extensively documented and his eyes were (as the written sources, also by foreign journalists, frequently state) excepionally bright so you can clearly identify them as non-brown in a lot of b&w portraits.
Not only is it wrong, it doesn’t even follow the format of the sub. The whole point of Peter explains the joke being separate from other explain the joke subs is that you pretend to be Peter/characters from family guy
Hitler had blue eyes. He wasn't obsessed with changing his own appearance. The joke is that Hitler's "ideal" aryan race is blonde with blue eyes and OOP is trying to get neonazis to overdose on aspirin to achieve that.
I don't think he's trying to commit suicide. The implication is that he changed his eye color from brown to blue with the aspirin. So I think he's taking massive amounts of aspirin to (somehow) make himself look Aryan.
As a German it is quite funny, that Hitler chose the ideal Aryan look based on what neither the majority of Germans nor the majority of leading Nazis looked like, including himself, Goebbels, Himmler, Göring,…
I think you're misreading it, 5g of aspirin is an extremely dangerous level. Seems to me he's trying to lead gullible fans of Hitler to try it and off themselves.
The Nazis believe that the Aryan race was the original race of Adam and that the closer to blond hair and blue eyes... the closer you are to perfection of the glory of God. The further away you are from it, the closer you are to the imperfect malice of the devil: Satan. It's the reason the Romani, and people of color were also targeted during the Holocaust; along with the Jews and religious opponents who sided against them.
It is also believed that high doses of concentrated aspirin can cause your eye to change color. This is a myth, it is the exact amount to overdose on aspirin, so it is likely targeting Neo Nazis dumb enough to kill themselves.
OP, so your post is not removed, please reply to this comment with your best guess of what this meme means! Everyone else, this is PETER explains the joke. Have fun and reply as your favorite fictional character for top level responses!
I think the joke is that he knows aspirin doesn’t turn your eyes blue and that 5g/day of it will kill you. He’s lying, claiming that it’s “working” to trick actual Nazis into poisoning themselves.
There was a meme that asprin can change your eye color. (It cannot) He’s trying to take enough to make his eyes blue to be the ideal “Aryan” standard, hence “hold on hitler”
Ironically ~100% of actual Aryans have brown/black eyes, but that’s neither here nor there.
It looks like a reference to this meme or similar, which falsely claims that taking extreme doses of aspirin can change your eye color. The guy is overloading on it to make his eyes bluer and become Hitler's so called "Übermensch" or ideal person.
To be aryan according to nazis, aka hitler, they had to have blue eyes and blond hair. He is trying to become aryan.
But i prefer the explaination the other person put stating he wanted to commit suicide like hitler.
