but were told it was because the Jews had been squeezing profits out of
honour will Germans
-By the time you're senior student your studies in history and make you
sure that the loyalty to the Führer was right and good
-Your biology would tell you that you’re a special member of the Aryan
race who is which is superior in intelligence and strength to the subhuman
Jews and Slavs of Eastern Europe
-In maths there would be questions like this one:

percentage of aliens in Germany
