a. He believed in racial separation- that everyone should live with people of their same ethnicity. He wanted to unite Europe with Germany as the leader, and then expand Germany. (That's reasonable in some ways. There are so many hate crimes today- not only limited to White on minority as they once were.)
b. He hated communism..... which started with German Jews, so I can see why he had a particular dislike of Jews.
c. He had his master race idea. (But, then again, we ALL have prejudices against other races of people and have-or, rather, should have- pride in our own races, ethnicities, etc. That doesn't really excuse him for KILLING other people in neighboring countries- such as Poland- but that excuses him from being called a racist for loving his race and ethnicity.)
d. Well "racism" really doesn't cover the disabled (they are not a race), but yes, that was cruel of him for killing them. However, the idea of sterilizing them isn't that bad, especially since the USA was doing that too for a while.
e. A little FYI-If you think Hitler was racist for wanting segregation, I think you should look at what some of your own political leaders have said:
"Nothing is more certainly written in the book of fate that these people (Blacks) should be free. Nor is it less certain that two races, equally free, cannot live in the same government. Nature, habit, opinion have drawn indelible lines of distinction between them."
-Thomas Jefferson (I haven't heard anyone call HIM a racist.)
"Given an opportunity in our ancestral Africa, the knowledge of farming and of simple farm machinery and implements, which we have acquired here would enable us to carve a frugal but decent livelihood out of the virgin soil and favorable climate of Liberia... We are a liability now, and any cost of this project, no matter how great, would still, we sincerely believe, be a sound investment for the American people... "
-Marcus Garvey (Black guy) who wanted the USA to help send Blacks back to Africa. (Is HE a racist?)
f. If you think Hitler was a racist for hating Jews, read in the Bible: John ch. 8- verses 42-59. (I think you should think a little bit of who you are calling racists.)
g. Hitler was raised as a German and loved German people. As far as being Austrian, however, he lived in the German-speaking part which had accepted a lot of the German culture.
h. Hitler supposedly WAS a Catholic. Hence was why he was against atheism....?
i. What exactly is wrong with wanting a Germany just for Germans? 0_o

Of course Hitler was racist. I've done a history exam on this topic, so i know what i'm talking about. He strived for the aryan race to be the supreme rulers of the world. They were meant to be blond haired, blue-eyed and fair-skinned and quite tall. Even so, Hitler wasn't any of these things himself, just shows how dillusional he was. Anyway, he disliked alcoholics, tramps, beggars, gypsies, homosexuals, the mentally ill and of course the jews in particular and sent them to concentration camps to either be gassed or gunned down

Discriminating against someone because of their race is the definition of racism. What did you think it meant? So you don't want to live near someone of another race? And you think you're not racist?

Hitler was a fascist. Thats another count against him. Psychologists define a government or cult as fascistic if they follow this pattern of behaviour;
1) Obey orders
2) Divide the community into Us and Them
3) Give the order 'Do them harm'
4) See who refuses and label them as' sympathisers with Them'
5) Exterminate/Eliminate Them.

Like all fascists he also murdered German Citizens for other reasons too.The Nazis practised their methods of mass murder on the disabled first of all.

So, you perhaps want to eliminate Them by having them live elsewhere? You can tolerate them as long as they aren't next door? Is your life that simple - what about Italian - English people? Where would they live? Or Welsh-English? Or doesn't that border count? Do kids go with the mother back to Italy or stay with the father in England? Or is it just black people you can't tolerate?
So you don't think that little crackpot mass murderer was 'that bad' ? What does a dictator have to do to make you think 'I say, steady on, that's a bit much'?

I admit that's a pleasing question. replaced into he attempting to ruin a collection and subculture or replaced into it merely that he replaced into attempting to promote yet another a lot that he had to ruin the others to finish his aims? just about a question of would the right justify the flexibility. Say he had done his aims. would the individuals he promoted say he replaced into evil to attempt this? If definite then would that make Israel evil. ok no longer attempting to commence this one yet imagine about it. They were given the land. So if it will be evil to create a land replaced into the U.N. evil for the advent of the Jewish state? I wager i'm getting some thumbs down for this evaluation yet is that because Hitler wasn't effective and the U.N. replaced into? I actually don't have any more some thing adverse to Israel yet my question is that if one replaced into evil, why isn't any different? Yeah the U.N. did not kill human beings to create Israel, yet they did stress human beings off the land in reality. If Hitler replaced into evil does that make Plato evil. in case you ever study, or study, the tale of the "large lie" then you absolutely would could agree it quite is amazingly close to to what Hitler replaced into attempting to do. in the right his moves were certainly evil, yet that would not allow you to understand of the guy himself. I dare say if he replaced into effective then he will be considered better as a hero then evil. So i'm no longer effective i ought to bypass as far as to call the guy himself evil.

Adolph Hitler was a man who was afraid of losing power to anyone. He blamed Germany's horrible economic state on different groups of people, moving on to other groups when there were no more people belonging to previous groups already blamed. So to put it simply, he was racist and a coward.

Hating any race is being racist. How can you have only one race to one place when there are no pure races?

Based on the histroy I was taught he definately was. He was against all races that were not of the Arian type. He was furious when Jessie Owens won his gold metals in the pre-war olympics.

Of course he was racist. Killing all the Jewish people and basically hating anyone thats different! If you agree with him I'd say you're a racist too!
