    The very notion that you can "solve" racism via extermination is laughable and it has no material basis.

    Its the foundation of the Right's own "Great Replacement Theory". They're convinced that their own shitty economic policies aren't to blame for declining birth rates. No, its a vast and insidious conspiracy of welfare queens, occluded marxist deep state bureaucrats, and woke corporations who are to blame for an absence of grandkids.

    The withering of the white middle class must be a deliberate engineered genocide intended to eliminate a superior racial cohort. It can't just be Reaganomics spiking the wheels of working class rural white folks for some short term finance sector ROI.

    You'd have an easier job convincing me that the Nazi war machine was going to spool down voluntarily after a successful WWII effort and that this would establish a long-running era of peace globally than you would arguing that the Nazi extermination machine was going to be put into disuse by somehow fixing racism.

    You're starting from a materialist understanding of the war, in which coups and assassination attempts against senior leadership kept happening and international peace treaties couldn't be honored for fear of a domestic revolt against a perceived weak high command.

    They're coming at it from a lifetime of "The Germans Were The Smartest, Most Badass, Most Sexiest soldiers that ever lived" History channel hagiographies. And so they have to assume that once the Nazis invented the Ultimate Super Weapon and swept the parts of the board that mattered, they'd settle into that 1000 year Reich they kept talking about.

    Obviously, the Nazis had a plan with more foresight than the end of the next Blitzkrieg. Its not like they'd bungle a huge industrial advantage by plunging the bulk of their forces into a drawn out guerrilla war on the other side of the continent while their Western flank was left unguarded against an amassed intercontinental force. How could the mythical legendary military champions fumble the ball that hard? Nah! They must have just rolled bad on initiative or something.
