The only things that should be compared to Nazis and Hitler should be the Nazis and Hitler themselves. I don't think that's unreasonable.

- bryanrasmussen 5y agoI guess I'll disagree with that, Nazis and Hitler are not some holy or taboo things that must never be compared to anything else, the problem is that comparison between things becomes difficult the more emotionally charged the things being compared are, so if you are going to compare Nazis and Hitler with something else you better be really clever at making comparisons and able to fight when folks come unglued.
