Question

Which of the following is not true regarding Nazism?

• A. People are created equal.
• B. Nordic German Aryans are superior to Jews.
• C. Nazism twisted the idea of natural selection.
• D. Nazis believed that the weaker races would perish.

Answer 1

The correct option is A People are created equal.

Nazi ideologies twisted the idea of natural selection to cater to their racist rhetoric and justified the ethnic cleansing carried out against different groups in Germany. They believed that the weaker races would perish and the strongest - the Aryan - would survive, that the Aryan race had to retain its purity, become stronger, and dominate the world. They also believed that the Nordic German Aryans were superior to Jews.
