Well, there were zero mentions of Nazis before we started. Then you brought Nazis into the picture. I can imagine, based on how you've brought up a completely unrelated topic, you must be drawing some sort of comparison. Otherwise why mention them?
Even if you're not saying they're identical, they aren't even on the same order of magnitude. Compare this to Soviet surveillance, or some other oppressive regime if you must. Don't bring the murder of millions of innocent people into the discussion just to prove a point. It trivializes a horrible event.

- Sambdala 13y agoSoviet surveillance directly and/or indirectly involved the murder of millions of innocent people though.
- halfninety 13y agoI would argue that actively avoiding to mention a horrible event will cause it to be forgotten and wouldn't help prevent a similar event from happening again.
