Includes gutless politicians who go and vote with the herd, never ask pertinent questions, etc.

It's cool how we are all different backgrounds, and not stereotypical knuckle draggers, but able to have conversations on a wide range of topics. I'm amazed by some people's niche expertises, like ...

I take it neither of you read the interesting article then? (-:

When did the history of genocide stop being interesting???

National Socialism and Internationalist socialism were both genocidal ideologies, notwithstanding modern revisions of the latter (which however appear to have gone unnoticed by Mao Zedong...

Tapping into an inexhaustible vein of antisemitism of course, which well predated WW1. From "The Protocols of the Elders of Zion" 1903 forgery to Martin Luther's inexcusable 1543 rant on "The Jews...

Anyway, while researching "pearl clutching" I found these very entertaining cartoons from the US, largely irrelevant to NZ of course, except perhaps the first two which are universal, the trump of...

Had to look that one up, a very funny idiom GDMP, these threads are very entertaining but not really worth losing sleep over. It's all very old news we are discussing after all.

1 million Waffen SS soldiers, many of whom conscripts, couldn't all fit into those KZ Lager guard towers. What a hateful rant kotuku

Walker, high-functioning psychopaths are with us everywhere, often in chief exec positions, usually moving on to their next high-paid job before the damage they wreak catches up.
GDMP, I get those...

While aware of the horrors of Socialism/Communism we may be reluctant to discuss it in case it somehow lets the Nazis off the hook. Really, it IS a given that even if everyone does something bad it...

I think re-enactors often do the Germans because they had smarter uniforms, better gear, better guns. Naught to do with fascination with nazism.

Here is a 1910 postcard for us all to take in,...

This thread started with a link to an incident of someone getting uber-offended at re-enactors of WW2 german soldiers.

Too many nowadays get too offended by a lot of things - verging on and...

Anyway, antisemitism shall always be with us, it is pretty mainline and fashionable - Not just available in red white and black, also available in "anti-zionism" palette.

The SS is not known for planting fake bombs. He must have been re-enacting something else.

Yes, antisemitism is/was also more widespread than just Germany. British immigration policy reduced numbers of refugees escaping Germany pre-holocaust.

I was waiting for someone to...

You forgot baby-eating.

It's not a nazi swastika, which stands on end, but a traditional upright swastika, a symbol of good luck. After the concentration camps the good luck bit never seemed right again, and the previous...

Yes, talk of an own goal in attacking the Jews - but stupidity is no bar to entering politics.

Some clown in Sweden, leads a party which is reactive to Arab muslim immigration and...

No, I don't think they would feel "in a safe space" approaching them.

The first gas murders were done on mentally handicapped / mentally ill children and adults using bottled carbon monoxide gas. As CO is a large component of coal gas, it may have been bottled coal...

...or only selectively remember. Alluding here to atrocities committed by non-Germans. It is just that the Germans were so industrially effective at it (even had help from IBM computing to organise...

There is a present country with 800 overseas military bases, all full of Narzi re-enactors wearing Fritz helmets and using Jerry cans.

Well pointed out timattalon, I do not believe the complainer is entirely sincere either. Feel sorry for the railway guy getting to be pig in the middle, trying to control damage.

I'm also sick...
