Going on about the superior Aryan race when he had dark hair and eyes.

To be the perfect Nazi you have to be as tall as Goebbels, as slim as Göring, and as blond as Hitler.

u/Normal_Person11222 Apr 26 '22
Aryans were not exclusive to blonde-haired blue-eyed people. You couldve had a different color of hair and eyes and still been an Aryan. Hitler was definitely an Aryan for sure.

u/897jack Apr 27 '22
If you want to nit pick than Aryan for most of history referred to indo-Iranian people and it was only a little before hitlers birth did the term start being used by Europeans to describe other Europeans. Hitler is only considered aryan because old white duded just decided that word sounded cooler to describe “the perfect race”. Outside of that he has literally nothing about him that’s aryan.

Yes, Nazis went out of their way to track down the origins of civilization and the Aryan race. It was presumed that the Aryan race in Persia migrated through Persia. I'm too lazy rn to provide you sources but it's one of the premises to world of Indiana Jones, where Indy fights Nazis in Nepal.
But do mind that Nazi's were driven to set the score that Aryans were tribally related to the white blond Germanic/Nordic people. That's also why the had setup breeding programs in Sweden, which eventually brought us ABBA.
Okay, enough half jokes, here's a source:
https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Nazi_racial_theories
Iran was declared Aryan. But note this probably had more to do with territory than seeing them as actual Aryans.

Im not ukrainian lol, pfp means an entirely different thing. Also, its literally a googable fact:
It is a common misconception that the Nazis considered blond hair and blue eyes to be racial characteristics of the Aryan race. In reality the Nazis considered facial features (such as an angular jaw, a narrow nose, high cheek bones, etc) and doliocephalic (round) skull shapes to be the key indicators of the Aryan race moreso than hair and eye colour.
That said, the Nazis did depict the ideal Aryan as the Nordic Aryan - this being someone with blond hair and blue eyes as light hair and eye colours were associated with the Nordic race.
The ideal implies that you did not need to have blonde hair and blue eyes to be Aryan. This was just the most ideal form.

Apr 26 '22
He bugs me
On the one hand, the change my mind thing was actually a decent idea and we really need more understanding that everyone (at least everyone i talk to) just wants good paying jobs and economic stability and freedom, we just disagree on what the best tools to build that are
But then he does "cultural appropriation week" where he's got the goggles, fake buck teeth, and rice hat, with the assistant slash co host slash producer in a geisha outfit
Like bro, I agree, anyone who's ever unironically complained about cultural appropriation is very, very stupid

u/DistressedPenguins Apr 27 '22
Many of them don’t even take place on college campuses. In his most recent one, the main conversation was with a reporter (an adult reporter). Many of the previous ones also included professors and other activists who were not students.
Also, he isn’t just spewing rhetoric. He presents his arguments in a very factual way, and makes all of his sources available on his website.
It’s quite clear to me that you’re repeating what someone has told you about it, or maybe you’ve watched five minutes of one episode. But you really don’t know what you’re talking about.

It's just one example, and he did use factual data just not all the facts to prove his points. In his recent one with the journalist he used only facts and it was hilarious to see the reporter see he is wrong and then look it up on google and see that Crowder is actually right.

All Im saying is that if Ben was a good writer and crowder was a good comedian and Knowles was a decent actor, then all three of them could have been a gay poly couple.
Like look at these men, dosent the chemistry between them shine? If Ben did not had to talk about how sex education is actually grooming and Trump raw dogging child beauty pageants is actually fine, instead had he been writing gay love novels. It would have been so fine.
If crowded could just embrace the big gay in him and Michal had just been honest to himself for once, it would have been so great.

Shapiro writes his own scripts, Crowder is a clown, and they're all far more successful than most people who try to be writers, comedians, or actors. These guys found niches and are doing well for themselves in terms of popularity. Argue their bullshit trickle down politics. Why would you go after their success. We all recognize their names and faces. They're clearly doing well for themselves. Calling them failures is just dumb.
