There's no one reason, but several.
The biggest probably being the rampant anti-semitism in pre-war catholicism which likely had a big influence on Hitler as a youngster.
Then, like I said, there's also the political propaganda tactics of rallying people against a "common enemy" and the Jews were an easy target, blaming them for losing the first war as well as jews supposedly boycotting Germany's recovery.

There's no reason to think so. Darwinian evolution has never been an argument for anti-jewish propaganda either. So it's quite clear that you only say these things because you fell for the propaganda of sites like creation.com, who do like to spread these lies.
However, I'll throw you a small bone here. Let's just bend over backwards and say that you are correct. That somehow, for some unknown reason, they cited evolution as an argument for saying that jews are inferior.
Then it would be a simple case of them not understanding the theory. There's nothing in evolutionary biology that says a certain race of homo sapiens is superior/inferior to any other race.
Perfectly logical reaction to a complete misunderstanding of said theory, perhaps.
But as said above, nothing in evolution theory says this. At all. There's no "superior". There's a "better adapted in context of the specific habitat".
Tibetans are "better adapted" then us, for example, for living at high altitudes.
Tibetans aren't "superior" to us and neither are we to them.
But we are all homo sapiens. There's no "more evolved" or "less evolved".
But there IS the dishonest and emotional "argument" (propaganda) of trying to claim that a scientific theory of biology that explains bio-diversity, somehow leads to nazism or whatnot.
Typical creationist tactic.... Kind of Godwin-ish as well, actually.
It's a sign of desperation and defeat.
Because it doesn't.
Communism is an authoritarian political system - nothing to do with biology.
Nazism is also an authoritarian political system, a fundamentally fascist/racist ideology based on hatred. Moreover, Jews are in fact just caucasian people, like the Germans themselves. So the race-card doesn't even actually make any sense here.....
But I get it though....
All bets are off and all means are allowed, as long as it leads to 21st century biology bashing, right?
No, not under the explanatory theory of evolution.
Perhaps under a seriously twisted and misrepresented version thereof....
That might explain why creationists tend to come back to this non-argument. It's rare to see a creationist who actually properly understand evolution theory.
1. populations evolve, not individuals
2. "fit" here, means "best adapted", not "stronger, bigger, more intelligent, faster,...". In other words, depending on circumstantial context, "fitter" might actually mean dumber, slower, smaller,....
But off course, you might want to study up on evolution before your mind can grasp that. Because as it stands, your posts have very consistently shown that your understanding of this backbone theory of biology, is extremely lacking.
