And the idea that the Dutch were responsible for the Great Fire of London was a widely held idea at the time. Whenever things start to suck, the foreigners are always blamed (lynched) first.
You can fix posture, you can't fix stupid. Find a nerd and teach them to swim or something. Besides, she is in high school, she has no reason to worry about relationships yet.
I would not call exile the "original idea." Hitler spoke of building rows of gallows and hanging them all before he came to power. I think the original idea was extermination of the German Jew, no matter what form it took. And their alleged economic burden on Germany is just one of the many imagined rationales the Nazis used. Jews in Europe had been persecuted to one degree or another since the Middle Ages, and there were countless conspiracy theories cooked up, and crimes imagined. Madagascar was going to be a sort of superghetto for Jews to rot to death in, and as such was not simply a non-lethal attempt at solving "The Jewish Question." The Haavara Agreement was a different animal. The antisemitism we hear today regarding Hollywood and Wall Street is benign compared to the stuff that was going on in Europe prior to the Holocaust. I mean, there were pogroms almost a thousand years before WWII. If anything, Nazi Germany should stand as a warning against utopian thinking. The idea that she's looking on with admiration is troubling. Ah, so she wishes she could have been a Hitler Youth! Again, charming.
I am sorry for your loss Carcano. You are a good man to step up to the plate and take care of your sisters kids. What is an alpha male? I think the defination/perception of an alpha male is somewhat variable depending on individual perspective. If she wants someone with a high IQ, perhaps she should joing the local Mensa chapter. Two, I would remind them that they don't need perfection to date someone. It is after all just dating - not marriage. That is what dating is all about - finding your likes and dislikes. They might be surprised. And if they are waiting for Superman, it is going to be a long wait.
MMmmm... Wonder why that would be? You do realise that is not a good thing, especially if you look at the traditional meaning of cynicism, yes? Well the meaning of Nazism still amounts to the murderers of over 11 million people, the attempted eradication of Jews and Roma, not to mention the wilful murder and experimentation and torture and killings of anyone born with a disability. I will be blunt here and say, it is not a good thing, nor something to be proud of, if your niece, under your charge, is into Nazism and eugenics. People are trying to be polite and skirt around this with you, but I think it is best to just be open and honest with you. And this is somehow acceptable to you as well? Wow.. You have got to be trolling us. Because you cannot be for real.. So forcing people from their homes because they are Jews and exiling them to Madagascar and Palestine is acceptable to you? What does you and she think of their attempted eradication of the Roma? Well we know she's into eugenics, so she obviously approves of killing anyone not born "perfect", but what about the millions of others who were slaughtered by the Nazi's? Really.. Hitler Youth.. [Insert facepalm here].. If she wants a date and see people like her, then a Neo-Nazi group might be just her kind of thing. Possibly yours too.. And again, this is not something you or she should be proud of. Personally, I'd want to kill myself if either of my children believed like your niece does. It would indicate such a failure on my part that I honestly do not know if I could live with myself. I certainly would not be proudly proclaiming it to all and sundry and then complaining she can't get a date. I would imagine her beliefs could be what is holding her back or keeping the boys well away. So if she wants to date a guy she can have the type of conversations that will allow her to be honest and open, then yes, the Neo-Nazi's and local skin heads may be just the thing for her. Ermm at this rate, she might have better luck looking at the Neo-Nazi's for her type of man...Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
What the Nazis stood for is very complicated, and she doesnt think everything they did or believed should be guilty by association with their crimes.
Not really, they thought they were the best of the best and everyone else was inferior to them and should be subjugated to their will. You'd better be careful as to what you think the nazis stood for it can put you in very deep troubles.
Trying to tease any good out of their actions or philosophies is akin to trying to get a theatrical review of Our American Cousin by Mary Todd Lincoln on the night of April 14th, 1865. Regardless of how good or bad the play or performance were, they were so hopelessly overshadowed by other events as to be rendered meaningless.
She has no interest in Neo-Nazis. She regards them as low lifes looking for a political excuse for hatreds that are psychological...as opposed to ideological.
Am I jumping to conclusions if I suspect that no racial minorities need apply when it comes to engaging her in social activities?
The reason I say its complicated is because the Nazis started out with a 25 point plan, created by several people including Hitler. It is extremely complicated: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Socialist_Program#The_25-point_Program_of_the_NSDAP
Well, maybe she'll meet a nice communist boy, and they can constantly argue, and have lots of hot, angry grudge sex. They would at least be able to share a hatred of liberals.
Like I said...its 'cynicism' she dislikes. Cynicism is really the great sign of the times...probably because everyone feels so bloody powerless.
Damn...after reading through the entire thread, it is a very different scenario from what I imagined by just reading the OP. I'm originally looked to be entertained...well I'm quite entertained alright, just not the way I expected it to be and frankly a bit disturbed. Carcano, it would do you good to educate her on societal norms, it will serve her well in life. Social skills is one of the most important skills a person could have in life, and Nazi ideology might not be something to encourage, foster and advertise in this post-WW2 world of ours, it definitely won't help her make friends and to socialize with others and it is quite unhealthy in my opinion. If she insists on having her own beliefs, have her to do extensive, objective research on Nazism. You also spoke of the fact that you can't do anything about it because she is a teenager, well at 17 she should have the maturity to take criticism, constructive or not. It would also be a good idea going to a psychiatrist and to get an idea of where she developed her beliefs and ideology and maybe fix it. Sometimes, such beliefs could stem from an unhealthy self-image. ANYWAYS, going onto the OP's question... It really depends on to what degree of intelligence, and athleticism. If she just wants a smart person that is healthily fit and acceptably attractive, it's not gonna be a long search. If she is looking for someone her IQ, athletic and decently attractive. Maybe it will take longer but she should still find one. If she wants a genius that is more intelligent than her, a blue-chip athlete, someone she would drool at and to add in the mix maturity, integrity and empathy. Good luck, we aren't that common obviously, and it all depends on where you live, obviously there will be more of us in metropolitan areas in comparison to rural areas though. To be frank, if she wants to add Neo-Nazi to her list...then good luck, because you will need it. There is the problem of once you find one, he is not guaranteed to date her. If she's hot, smart and have a good personality then maybe, but from what I'm reading here it doesn't seem like she have all those qualities. Plus, I don't know about where you live, but I don't know of many guys that would date a neo-Nazi, it usually is an INSTANT turn-off, no matter who the girl is and will gain a reputation as "that chick" if you know what I mean. I will explain other difficulties using people that I could consider to be blue-chip athletes that are mature, likable, highly intelligent, and attractive are me and my friend, both OVFL (highest level of rep football in Ontario and arguably Canada) All Star selections, my friend a JV (U17) Quarterback second-team all star, me an OV (U19, but we are both 15) all star alternate defensive back. We are also both the two of the best students the gifted program. I'd like to think (and thus far it has been this way) that we can get any girl we want, but we are both in a stable relationship with girls we love. I'd imagine it would be the same with a lot of other guys like us, we would be in stable relationships with hot, intelligent and nice girls.
She may have gone through the same program as you...ontario gifted stream grades 5-8. I appreciate your considerate reply. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
Yes, I'm sure some of her best friends are Lebensunwertes Leben...or if not that, then at least "life unworthy of procreation." (And she thinks others are cynical? She has categorizes all but 1% of her male classmates as "not good enough" based on various superficial flaws, and categorizes large swathes of the human species as unworthy of the "privilege" of procreation...pot, meet kettle.) Frightening predilection for fascism and disdain for liberty aside, she would be better off letting go of her checklist of traits that she is measuring guys against. By and large, people with "high standards" (meaning "rigid checklists") either lower their standards over time or they wind up having very few, very unsatisfying relationships. The problem is that no one in the entire world is perfect for her, and (A) the set of men who will check off every box is relatively small, (B) an individual member of that set is no more likely to mesh with her romantically than a guy who does not meet all the criteria, and (C) likely to get paired off early in the great race because they are so exceptional. That is not even to mention that she's set her sights on getting a "Perfect 10" but there's no reason she rates that highly herself, and human "assortive mating" suggests that if she's a 7 on the perfection scale (and with a proclivity towards Naziism, I think a 7 may be generous, as politics do matter in a long term pair bonding relationship), the best she will ever do is an 8, and a 6 or 7 is more likely. Unless she can meet a man that she does connect with, form a bond, and tie him down very early, she'll be saddled with high expectations and limited prospects. That gets to be a problem that ramps up over time because women with lower standards will snatch up the 6-9's while she holds out for a 10. Then, in her 30s she'll look back at the various 8s she passed and realize they were quality guys, all of whom are married with kids. The better strategy is to trash the checklist and simply get to know people until you find one you click with. The odds of meeting someone with whom you share a connection are much higher if you are not (cynically) noting each flaw and tabulating each feature they have as you get to know them. Question: Are guys asking her out? I'm curious if the problem is (as it seems to be from what you wrote) her own failure to give guys a chance, or if guys just aren't that into her.
