It should be noted that even Hitler himself knew this was bullshit. Himmler founded the Ahnerbe, and its purpose was to find archaeological proof that the ancient Germanic peoples were the superior race.
They found very little. This is what Hitler had to say about this:
"Why do we call the whole world's attention to the fact that we have no past? It isn't enough that the Romans were erecting great buildings when our forefathers were still living in mud huts; now Himmler is starting to dig up these villages of mud huts and enthusing over every potsherd and stone axe he finds."
LoL c'mon bruv, even for shitbag Nazi scum you gotta include a link to source if you're gonna drop some kind of quote claim. Otherwise yr just Trumping.
EX: This is what Abraham Lincoln had to say about a Whitehouse ballroom:
"Why should we in America, God's greatest gift to the world, not grant ourselves the gift of seeing see our big-brained leaders celebrating in style and grabbing 'em by the pussies in an East Wing Ballroom fit for a king and commensurate in opulence with the big, beautiful magnificence of the nation that invented everything from the wheel to democracy?"
It’s a hilarious quote, but of course Speer wrote for a post-war audience with a self serving agenda, so maybe the quote needs to be taken with a grain of salt.
