Nazis were taught that they were superior to all other races.

Explanation:

The Nazis believed that they had pure blood and were a part of the pollution that was supposed to rule over the world with their Aryan ancestry.

Obviously this meant that they believed all other races to be below them but also that they considered the Jews to be terrible people and beneath them.

They were brainwashed into believing that the Jews were the root cause of all evil in the world and this informed most of their world view in terms of their decisions made in society
