No, no, Shemp. Don't you see, if his institute is located in Alabama and he was an Austrian, there's simply no question but that he was a quasi-white supremicist. All Austrians were Nazis, and all Alabamans are white supremicists. There's simply no other possible conclusion: he founded his institute in Alabama because its white supremacist views were so compatible with his racist Nazi ideology. Makes perfect sense; don't know why you'd even try to argue with it. <faceplant>
