Hitler infamously condemned the IQ system for being "jewish". I don't think that sentiment has gone away.

Usually it's the far left that use the oppressor/oppressed way of thinking to demonize their enemies. But when it comes to Jews, Nazis and many other extreme right wingers do the same.

Hitler saw the Jews as an existential threat, not as objectively inferior to "Aryans". In fact, this is why he hated them so much above anyone else; he thought that they were the only "Race" that had the potential to out-compete his "Aryans".

We're veering terribly off topic, but I'm pretty sure this is not historically true.

That was my take when I read his section about Jews in Mein Kampf.
