Nazi ideology was total, in that it was a world view that claimed to explain everything about the world and how it functions.
At its core, the Nazi world view was racist and biological, positing that the so-called “Aryan” race - primarily the North Europeans - was the superior race of human beings. Their superiority granted the Aryans the right and obligation to rule over other races and peoples, for the benefit of humankind. The Jews, in complete contrast, were seen as a kind of “anti-race”, dangerous inhuman beings in seemingly human form. They were viewed alternatively as microbes and parasites, or as devils, that is, inhuman creatures with superhuman power.
In this video, Dr. David Silberklang presents the topic of Nazi ideology and answers the following questions:
What is Nazi Ideology? What were its roots? From where did the Nazis derive the ideas which served as the basis of their ideology?
Dr. David Silberklang is Senior Historian and Editor of Yad Vashem Studies, International Institute for Holocaust Research, Yad Vashem.

I don't understand the fact that your mother has to be Jewish for you to be Jewish. So if your father is Jewish you are not. It makes no sense to me.

I love how, event though this is a channel dedicated to Jewish victims, they also equally focus on other people who were exterminated during the Nazi rule.

2:33 Excuse me, are you really putting Genetics in the Racist category? You're butting the study of heredity and the variation of inherited characteristics as inherently Racist? No, just no, on that you're wrong. I'm going to assume you just did that because you had three roots to fill.

Thanks a lot! I wonder though whether the section on modern antisemitism fell a bit short. Especially the narration of "greed" and "capital" was extremely intense when the NAZIs rose to power and I worry a bit that this can be a pathway again. Whenever people encounter economic hardship, this can serve as an easy way out, scape goating and distracting from reality. This must be exposed and debunked in a time where people start worrying again about global and/or capital elites!
