How am I saying that entropy? Im just saying I dont like to be called a NAZI since Naziism and Fascism are diametrically opposed to what I or my family belive and have fought and bled for. I realized that you didn't know that, which is why I told you I found it offensive. As far as Im concerned you and I are square,... even (dont know the Slang for what im trying to say in British)
I've always thought that ppl who feel that calling someone a nazi in todays day and age is going to offend that person are just being ridiculous and incredulous
Wolverine-man.
Ridiculous and incredulous?
Refusing to belive that word NAZI is hurtful? Oh please, the word is not as harmless as you think. What image are you conjuring when you call a politician a book burning Nazi, or even a Jackbooted thug (one thats slightly less offensive but still tied to NAZI's) Your conjuring up imagages of mass book burnings in Munich, and concentration camps the mass execution of communists, Catholics, the Handicapped, Elderly, Mormons, Jehovas Witnesses, the Blitz and Battle of Britain. the Occupation of France, Holland, Poland, Czechloslovakia, Norway, Denmark, Belgium, Serbia, Croatia, Greece, Hungary, Austria and huge portions of Russia, Dr. Mengela and all the other baggage of the Nazi regime. I bring all of that up for the impact no other nation in the History of the world has done what the Nazi Third Reich did and no one should ever forget it either.
Being called a Nazi is being called a lot of things at once, a warmonger, a racist, a murderer and a mindless thug.
Unlike Mel Brooks and Seinfeld, Im not Jewish, Im not an entertainer, I dont have a TV show and frankly
I dont see any need to soften the impact of Naziism, just like I dont see a need to soften the impact of Stalinism. If you think Im overreacting I invite you to visit the Holocaust museum in Washington DC or pay a trip to Buchenwald Belsun or Auchwitz.
