Hi, I'm new and somewhat young but also relatively mature. I hope to have enriching discussions here.
National Socialists advocated and embodied an attitude of ruthless 'racial' struggle and constantly paraded Aryans as the attained summit of human evolution. What I'm wondering is, beyond the flagrantly unrealistic propaganda, did any nazi ideologue attempt to 'validate' the belief in Aryan mastership scientifically, i.e. Darwinistically? I know that Hitler in Mein Kampf describes his postulation of the universe as a battleground for competing racial forces, and I'm sure Nazidom's ideological-intellectual elite reflected the view. But was there any large-scale effort to 'dispassionately', critically reinforce this view?
