Let me compare this with Mormon ideology. Its Us vs Them lie is built around concepts of "righteousness", good vs evil centered faith in the right religious leadership and the right god, ultimately on God's true followers vs Satan's (secret) true followers.

Imagine the headline in a Mormon context: "Does the Pope Secretly Worship the Real Jesus After All?"

Or from the other direction, in an atheist newspaper: "Mormon Prophet May Have Secret Ties To Satan."

Do you see how ridiculous it is and how the premise accepts the basis of the lie, and thus spreads the lie?

Jews are real, and their ethnicity exists and is important. But any discussion within fascism's frame of what that means is a bonkers batshit lie, and establishes credibility for it. It literally doesn't matter what Hitler claimed about his race ideology compared to his own ancestry. Because it's all made up magical thinking in the first place.

It reminds me of other rumors and things people said about Hitler before this era of time, even before the internet, and it was all there to distract us white people into fundamentally misunderstanding fascism and white supremacy.

Liberals and well-meaning conservatives who haven't unpacked this are operating under the same misunderstandings, and tactic acceptance of certain fascist principles (like that Hitler's own race EVER mattered).
