One of the most proclaimed eugenics that this world has ever encountered is Adolf Hitler. Hitler placed racially-based social policies for the perfection of the Aryan race through Eugenics. He also targeted those who were in his sense, not worthy of life; those people were criminals, homosexuals, the insane, and the weak. He tried to eliminate these chains of genetics to "purify the world." Hitler's determination to establish his "Master Race" was embraced by German eugenicists and eugenicists elsewhere failed to criticize the Germans. After Hitler had killed millions of people, including one third of the Jews in the world, he lost the war. The name of his political party became and to this day remains one of the most offensive words in the language, and ideas that are tightly associated with him are universally condemned. So the idea of building a master race became extremely unpopular. However, the eugenics movement did not die.
