Why does no one realize that while many NAZI's were truly horrible people that there were still many of them who were perfectly nice people?

Sam.I.Am · 12th July 2012, 06:50 PM

Except of course for the Illinois Nazis. Everybody hates those guys.

BaaBaa · 12th July 2012, 06:54 PM

When you say nazi, do you mean people who voted them in or actual members of the NSDAP?

Well, Oskar Schindler was one of the good guys, I suppose. Who else do you consider a perfectly nice Nazi?

Racists are nuanced people in their prejudice, but they get derided with blanket statements.

I was opposed to the Texas bashing at first, but this thread has convinced me that Texans are as bad as Nazis.

I keep getting those two mixed up, but I know one was responsible for murdering like 11 million people and the other was somehow involved in the making of a terrible John Travolta film.

commandlinegamer · 13th July 2012, 08:53 AM

I could less about those who bash Nazis or bishops, but I'm more than happy for abusers of the apostrophe and other crimes against grammar to be tortured with extreme prejudice.
