You dont see Germans go around being proud of being Aryan?A) Jews, as a rule, tend to take the parts of Judaism that work with modern life and disregard the parts that don’t. And the ethnocentric parts really fucking don’t.
B) Also, the idea of Aryan as you speak of it came into being largely as a racist misinterpretation of Hindu texts that ended up in the deaths of millions of people. And, in fact, while there was probably an Aryan culture, Germans/Nordic people ain’t it. In fact, one of the groups decimated in the Holocaust (the Roma) was probably closer to the historic Aryans (Indo-Iranians) than the Germans who co-opted it.
I always thought Aryanism was based on Aryan Migration theory?. There is a map gif of it on Wikipedia if you look up "Indo-Aryan migrations"
edit: But i just dont understand why they cant denounce it? Its not like one encourages anti semitism if one is cool with Hebrews. Just like one isnt anti german for being against Aryanism
