What did he mean by this?

>>1809044
He was disagreeing with Hitler "we master race" because he wasn't very fond of racial supremacy ideas that Hitler tried to force onto him

It is fairly well known that he was not a fan of Hitler, especially early on. He was one of the few leaders that stood up to Hitler during his first attempt at Anschluss. There is also documentation of him criticizing German racial theory. He only allied in order to secure lands. As German dominance grew, he basically became more subservient to Germany

It's even sadder. He jumped the gun in 1940 thinking that the Allies were finished. He feared having to become a satellite of Germany. So he declared war to get a share of the spoils so Italy would stand on it's own. This was Italy's policy until 1941, one of 'parallel war' rather than allies.

It ended up creating the exact situation Mussolini sought to avoid.

Mussolini was as much WE WUZ ROMANZ AND SHEEEIT as the Nazis were nordicist; of course he's going to view Germanics as a bunch of pseudo-intellectual stab-happy forestniggers.

Inferiority complex due to seeing how much better and more competent the Germans were at pretty much everything.

>He only allied in order to secure lands
He allied with Hitler to industrialize Italy. With the SoN sanctions, he needed german resources.
