Is for Nazis!

Posted by Noemon (Member # 1115) on :

That's just the sort of thing I'd expect Hitler to say.

Posted by Phanto (Member # 5897) on :

Mind if I snuggle? I like snuggling and snuggling makes you warm.

Posted by Bean Counter (Member # 6001) on :

But what about the good things Hitler did?

Posted by sndrake (Member # 4941) on :

Well, this is distressing.

Bob and Noemon are engaging in exactly the same kind of rhetoric that led to the extermination of millions of people in Nazi Germany.

Phanto and BC are responding with the same degree of apathy and amusement as those that just looked the other way while the Nazis did their thing.

Posted by Noemon (Member # 1115) on :

You know, Hitler was a notorious snuggler. Why don't you go snuggle with him, Nazi?

Look who's talking, you dirty fascist.

Posted by sndrake (Member # 4941) on :

Godwin is a fascist, and those who invoke him are just jackbooted, brownshirted thugs!

Posted by rivka (Member # 4859) on :

And what is wrong with brown shirts, pray tell?

Posted by Shan (Member # 4550) on :

Most any color tie goes with brown shirts, I'm sure . . .

Posted by mr_porteiro_head (Member # 4644) on :

You know, the Nazis had forum rules that they forced the Jews to follow.

Posted by Bean Counter (Member # 6001) on :

Has anybody noticed that the effectiveness of a modern army is inversely proportional to the skill they possess at goose stepping?

I just saw that catch phrase at T-shirt Hell.com next to "I had the Olsen Twins before they were famous"

I am hardly apathetic about fascism.

Are you volunteering to come up with parallel rules for this forum, mph?

Posted by Dan_raven (Member # 3383) on :

Bah, Nazi's are so last century.

I'd rather compare my debate partners to Al Queda.

Posted by Kwea (Member # 2199) on :

What? You have no idea how to beat them so you go kill their cousins in another country?

Posted by TomDavidson (Member # 124) on :

I was just watching the new episode of the Simpsons -- don't get your hopes up, BTW -- and was rather surprised to discover that, just seven minutes in, it broke Godwin's Law in reference to baked goods.

Hmm...Godwin's law and baked goods. Is that anything having to do with torte reform?

Posted by kaioshin00 (Member # 3740) on :

Hey, I saw an article about Naziism on USAtoday.

So you are saying that all modern armies have infinite skill, since goose-stepping wnet out with the Nazis? And incidentally, the Wehrmacht and the Kaiser's army were hardly incompetent.

I suggest you watch the propaganda films from the Middle East.
