How can such a large argument be based on a term that lacks any kind of real definition. The whole "Nazi" thing is old. I'm a Jew. The Nazi's were bad. I get it. Other people who are racist are Nazis. I know that you guys all value greatly the intellectual and academic value of your discourse regarding the politics, culture, ethics and what have you of our current events, but I think if you want to have a truly better understanding of what Nazi'ism actually was, how it started and how it could happen again, I would turn back to the textbooks.
It's really what you would call in formal debate an essential "ad hominem" (to the man) est ad hominem, ubi intellexerunt per linguam Latinam. Obviously, as a Jew, I grew up knowing that the Nazi's were bad people. I understand your arguments and I actually don't mean to rock the boat at all. I just feel the most Americans, and I say with all honesty that I'm not referring to you guys specifically, have what would be considered a cursory knowledge of their own history, at best.
Approximately one third of Americans have demonstrated that they cannot precisely place the United States on a map indicating no geographical notation. How many Americans do you think can point out Baghdad? Iraq? The Middle, Fucking, East. Yet, every American has some kind of opinion on how the world should run.
Just, please guys, I really am all about History. I live, eat and breathe humans, geography and culture. If we're going to have good-hearted and true debate regarding historical concepts like the Nazi's, let's avoid all of the personification and emotional globalization. It only further distorts the Truth with a capital T that we all are questing after in the same fashion. Food for thought guys.
The Trump Presidency has very limited similarities to the 3rd Reich. The Ad Hominem argument is easy for anyone to make. It's fun and I enjoy it myself frequently, but it just ain't the same.
Sorry I left my meme at home
Even if I totally disagree with what they're trying to say.
