re: #327 Gus 802
Oddly enough they were (are) both compared to Hitler by the extremists.
That’s because the extremists of both sides didn’t pay attention in history class. Or because they’re deliberately dense in order to cloud whatever issue they’re arguing about.
I immediately lose all respect for people when they start pulling a Godwin and comparing current political leaders to Hitler, or any current issues to the Holocaust. It’s stupid and offensive and trivializes the very real evils that they’re using to try and make some sort of ham-handed point. I can’t stand that sort of intellectual laziness. It irks me.
