All obviously true but for this audience you have to, sadly, address the Nazi mind view that is explicitly built to counter this.
The parents lived in the better location because they are better, purer Aryans. That's why the kid did better, because they have the good genes. They deserve their success. The poor deserve their poverty.
Zoom out to different countries and you can find top level members of the government making this argument on a daily basis. "They" are poor because they are inferior human beings and do not deserve to be treated as full human beings.
- graemep 8mo agoI am not convinced about the Nazi mindset. They hated Jews who were (perceived as, anyway) more successful on average. Can you explain further or cite sources that do? Racism is very often directed at groups that are relatively successful. Claims of racial superiority are very fringe these days (even racists avoid explicitly making the claim and talk about things like culture) which is a significant improvement. Which politicians make the claim that the poor are inferior and not full human beings? The idea is certainly out there, but mostly popular with a certain type of rich person, rather than people in governments, and is usually implicit rather than made explicitly. Its possible this happens in countries I do not know about, but if so i would like to know which and who.
- watwut 8mo agoJews were not more successful on average, statistically speaking. It did not mattered how successful Jews actually were on average. Any rich Jew was seen as a proof Jews are unfairly rich. And any poor Jew was seen as a proof Jews are criminal filth unable to get a job.
