Should Europeans and people of European descent continue to claim the identity of "Aryan?"

[Xenomorph]

If you ask me, it's high time that the moniker of Aryan were abandoned by European peoples. Yes, ancient Indo-Europeans were crucial in the formation of modern European cultures, but historically, the title of Aryan was only used Indo-Iranias. Correct me if I'm wrong, but no European people laid claim to the name of Aryan until the race "science" of the 19th century took off. Europeans should be pround of their own ethnicities as well as the Indo-European heritage, but the title of Aryan does not belong to people west of Iran (besides the Ossetians). Thoughts?

The title of Aryan does not belong to people west of Slavs.

I agree. The term aryan doesn't make sense.

I would argue that not even they should claim it, despite some fo their ties to the Sarmatians.

'Aryan' is a Sanskrit word meaning 'noble'. IMO nobility is an individual condition and regarding entire ethnicities as 'Aryan' is rather ambiguous, if not meaningless.

Good point. I'll add that it refers to the mind as in noble minded. The nobility of the mind is not something one can genetically inherit. Only noble minded individual can claim being an Aryan, and that excludes about 99.99999999999999999999999999999999% of people. Truth hurts.

Indeed. I would say only a few of our race qualify to be called Aryan. I would have said differently a few generations ago. Honor, pride, dignity and holy comderadeship have long left our people as we remain in a decayed, Judaized state. A true Aryan in my book as far as our race goes would be someone like Rudolph Hess or Reinhard Heydrich and I mean this as a combination of the physical, mental and spiritual tendencies they possessed.

The individuals you mentioned were not noble minded. Buddha was a true Aryan not Nazis. You are confusing the meaning of the word.
