Living in the liberal empire has no effect on my genetics or where I was born.

Austrians are Germans. Scandinavians are Nordic.

You just said that genetics don't matter a moment ago. And you are an American.

I am not an American, living here for 8 years does not make me an American.

We are Germanic culturally but most of us are Nordic ethnically.

Explain how a benefit is a special benefit if it's a benefit most people have?

Because that benefit does not naturally belong to them, they are simply requesting it for no reason other than financial benefits.

How do you determine what benefits naturally belong to people?

Are benefits genetic? If that's the case, how would you explain why scientists haven't discovered genes that would determine something like that despite observing human chromosomes fairly thoroughly?

I am not saying the U.S. was perfect either :p after all we not only have the Unit 731 Experiments but also the Syphilis experimentation in Guatemala years later.

I am just saying that the International Nuremberg Commission found and what the opinion of one of the members of it expresses.

Things like communism, or socialism cater to everyone, thus giving the weak what belongs to the strong.

The weak are those who do not make it, where in a corporatist, or a capitalist system if you do not make it, it is because you rejected opprotunity and embraced complacency and laziness.

Therefore they are rightfully cast out by the natural order of things, Social Darwinism.

Considering social darwinism is shit science (no it isn't even science) it can safely be ignored.


Whoa don't knock social darwinism just cause some neonazi seems to enjoy abusing the concept. ;)

You've got to combat stupidity openly, so that the lurkers will know how to combat it whenever they face it. Eventually, everybody save those who express the stupid views will know the stupidity for what it is, and those who spout it will become irrelevant in public discourse. See: the KKK as currently stands.

This is a common point of confusion. The above quote referred to Mengele, and it wasn't that the experiments were so disturbing that they refused to use them, it was that they were scientifically unusable because gathering useful data was never the point of them.

Mengele was a sadist and a megalomaniac, who pretended to be doing "research" as a flimsy justification for torture.

Shit. Hopefully Brewer will veto again.
I support peace in Israel and Palestine. The governments and people in power on all sides are an absolute disgrace, and their unwillingness to pursue peace is a disservice to the people they are meant to be serving. The status quo is not simply untenable; it is unquestionably unacceptable.

1: Yes, many Nazi scientists who thought Adolf Hitler was god proved it
2: Gay are such big enemies that they had to be tortured to submission
3: You can't cure something like that. You would have to reset the entire genetic code. If the Nazi's had that power, its a good job we destroyed them when we did.

There's no reason to kill homosexuals, they were not killed.

Even if they wanted to, at that time they were experiencing manpower shortages, and would not exterminate Germans because they were homosexual.

The fact is that they came out of the hospitals no longer having homosexual tendencies.
