I know, I know! Some people here want to lionize the 3rd Reich because they opposed Jews who dominate most of the world today. Uhmazing. But, like it or not, their ally the Japanese are much like the Nazis and are a great example of unrestrained Nazi forces.
Germans are known for being hyper disciplined and have exceptional engineering skills, boarding on neurotic, and the same is true for the Japanese. Nazi Germany convinced themselves they were of a special superior race, and so did the Imperial Japanese.
And how did the Imperial Japanese act? Were they merely trying to act in self defense invading countries all across Asia? And how did they treat the people they conquered? Were they being good benevolent Ubermench, or were they treating other human beings like dogs to be slaughtered and used?
So please, spare me the "Aryans are the exception" bs. We have examples of what the Nazi mindset leads to (besides some of the real evils Nazis did, even if the gas chambers were a lie or exaggeration).
Except that religion was specifically concocted as a war propaganda tool. Its sole existence is to prop up the cult of personality of the emperor, to promote hive-mind mentality and to justify sacrifice of the individual to the state. It's exactly what the North Korean "religion" is about. Calling them religious fanatics is disingenuous - they were as religious as the communists and the nazis. It's an astro-turf pseudo-religious militarist cult.
It sounds a lot like Aryanism.
It does and I mentioned that.
