Who wouldn't respond positively to begin told they were "number one" among all others, but it was a lie, just like stereotyping the Jewish people or non-Aryan people as inferior is a lie.
In the end Adolph Hitler found it necessary to put a gun to his own head to blow out his brains. Hitler went out a defeated man; a loser that lead his country to ruin based on a pack of lies. He was responsible for so much death and destruction. That is the historic legacy Hitler left behind. We should learn from history that there are no superior or inferior races. We are all humans, very much alike both emotionally and physically. We should honor our diversity, but even more importantly, we should honor our likenesses as members of the human race.
