Theory of Untermenschen
The theory of Untermenschen is Hitler’s ideal that some races are subhumans; inferior people to the Germans. In Hitler’s eyes, the Germans were the superior race and all other races needed to be exterminated like rats in the streets. Hitler believed that the Slavic Russians were Untermenschen just as he did the Jewish people. His goal was to exterminate all non-Germans and one can only imagine what the world would be like had Hitler been successful.
