They don't actually understand any of those things. They just think white skin, blue eyes and blond hair equals Uber mensch and thus the divine right to rule the world. And just like the Nazis, the fact that most of them don't actually conform to the qualifications they dream up is beyond them. That's why you see those pictures of Trump as a muscular Jesus, they are very detached from reality.

They worship Jesus as their idol but Jesus had literally none of those traits

Right, but that's the crazy part.

In their mind I'm genetically superior, but only because of my appearance. Then if I come out and say "but I'm not genetically superior" they get pissed off because yes I am and I'm a traitor.

How can they possibly be comfortable with stating one thing both is and is not good?

Their goal is not to be logically consistent. Their goal is to make you subservient.

It's funnier cause they claim blue eyes are superior when in most of the world it isn't, especially when the world is heating up more and more and we have less ice and snow.

What do blue eyes have to do with less ice and snow?

It's a thing that's being studied but apparently it's also true for reindeer which turn their eyes blue during the winter to help them see better in low light conditions and brown in the summer when there's better lighting.

Ha, man, I thought I was crazy, I had no idea. My ancestry was largely from northern Europe - but my Dad did a lot of astronomy and typically had me find things for him when we were out in the field. He always said "because you see things better than me" which I thought was absolute horseshit because I'm near sighted and he's farsighted.

Maybe I did because my blue eyes actually helped a bit.

Definitely a possibility. All life on earth is actually insane in how it works and why. Even the simple looking things like the color of our eyes.

Its basically also why people closer to the equator have darker skin.

  • Too much sun = skin cancer
  • Not enough sun = vitamin D deficiency
  • Too much melanin = needs vitamin D supplements in the Arctic winter
  • Not enough melanin = skin cancer prone skin

Melanin. Melatonin is the chemical that makes you sleepy

I can't tan. It's the worst. I just burn.

[-] Zozano@lemy.lol 4 points 21 hours ago

Corrected, thanks friend.

Yep and by that same logic the ubermensh are actually gonna be the 'inferior' (not that I believe any of that) species with the climate change that same people love to deny.
