There are a whole lot of problems with Hitler. That he was apparently a hypocrite about racial purity is very, very far down the list. That he wasn't racially pure isn't even on the fucking list.
 
Hitler's ideas doesn't really hinge on himself being "racially pure".
That's what any nazi will tell you if you reveal this to him or her.
 
If you trace my ancestry back 50,000 years I'm related to Africans. I'm so ashamed.

His definition of Aryan was incredibly skewed and factually incorrect in the first place.

the only member of the nazi high-command that looked aryan was reinhard heydrich, which is strange as he was of jewish decent and hitler knew it. :lol
 
We're all inter-related, which is why the concept of race is meaningless as a biological construct. I have Morrocan heritage going back 500 years in addition to the Spanish, Aztec and probably West African that's in there too.

Funny thing is that I read the thread title as "Hitler related to Jews, Africans and the Biebers"

I think his '39-'45 tour of Europe was kinda neat. Himmler was fucking smoking on the guitar, and Göring was a powerhouse behind the drums.

What is the German ideal? As blond as Hitler, as tall as Goebbels, slim as Goring, and chaste as Rohm.

I still don't understand how so many Germans got hooked into the racial purity thing with those guys in charge.

They were hooked by the "we're going to save economy and solve the crisis!" rather than by the racial message
Germany was in a big economic mess when Hitler came to power.

I know that was part of it, I'm familiar enough with the history of Weimar and Nazi Germany. But a significant portion of those who supported them bought into the racial superiority aspect.

I don't think you're getting what the problem with Hitler's definition of Aryan was... Aryans are not Germanic / Nordic:

Aryan

In scholarly usage (Indo-Iranian peoples collectively or separately for the Iranian and Indo-Aryan branches, cf. Arya)

Self designation of the Indo-Iranian languages and their speakers, viz. the Iranian and Indo-Aryan peoples, collectively known as the Indo-Iranians (still in use by some in the scholarly community for Indo-Iranian languages as a whole or for both the Indo-Aryan and Iranian branches).

...

As an adaptation of the Latin Arianus, referring to Iran, 'Aryan' has "long been in English language use". Its history as a loan word began in the late 1700s, when the word was borrowed from Sanskrit ā́rya- to refer to speakers of North Indian languages.
