Technical question (half in jest, fully in earnest): Since the research and course described in the article is about how Hitler's radicalization may be analogous to current political radicalization and antisemitism, are we simply starting at the point where Godwin's law is already fulfilled, or does the corollary of Godwin's law still apply, i.e., "when a Nazi or Hitler comparison is made, the thread is finished and whoever made the comparison loses whatever debate is in progress"?
