The article mentions that, some of the Nazi values were developed from the philosophy of Nietzsche. That is a false statement. Nietzsche's philosophy was deformed to fit Nazi views. Hitler used a few Nazi scholars to do that task and interpret Nietzsche's philosophy in a way favorable to Nazism. Nietzche's "ubermensch" is a different term than Hitler's "superior beings". Nietzsche never used the phrase "breeding upwards". The term "ubermensch" applies to a person, who sees and accepts the nihilistic nature of the universe and goes on with life with positive desire to excell. The "ubermensch" can be anybody, from any race, of any age.
