    Hitler thought the Proper Aryan Look was blond with blue eyes. If you’re not hard-mode cognitive-dissonancing, you’re not a fascist. They live in a fantasy world inside their heads. The problem is they want to force that world to become reality.

      This has always been hilarious to me, considering that I am from a country whose name is the plural of Aryan. Iran is Aryan in plural form, and I can assure you that blond with blue eyes is not the look of people in central Asia, where Aryans originate.
