Hiel the new nazi regime
Without being horrible here why do we say Nazi and not Germany? We say America is at war not the repbulicans or Bush/O'bama.kbdfr wrote:Perhaps you should reflect on what the Nazis actually did.
They did not just ban people from forums, they persecuted and killed them.
You are not offending the geekhack mods,
you are offending the millions of victims of the Nazi regime.
1. Useless posts. Do not bother making posts with only one or two words (e.g., "cool" or LOL) or a smilie, or post simply to have the first reply in a thread. Such posts waste everyone's time and will be deleted. Posts saying "I agree", "+1", "this", "me too", or the equivalent are also routinely removed, so don't post them. If you aren't interested in a thread, skip the thread; don't post to tell us you aren't interested.
I wouldn't object to that, even if the difference between a Republican and a Democrat US administration is not to be compared to the difference between Nazi Germany and the Federal Republic of Germany, which are two completely different countries albeit on the same territory. But of course, it was Germany.fossala wrote:Without being horrible here why do we say Nazi and not Germany? We say America is at war not the repbulicans or Bush/O'bama.
Shouldn't it be "reflect on what Germany did"?
I fear someone who speaks of "new Nazi regime" because (horribile dictu) he was banned from a forum will not understand what you mean.gorkypl wrote:[...] I can see no excuse for referencing Nazism in jokes.
Heil. Not Hiel<sic>.MyNameIsFinn wrote:I never said Hiel the new nazi regime on geekhack.
You miss understood, the only thing I said was "come at me mods"
9. Corrections. There is no need to point out another poster's spelling or grammatical errors unless you think it is causing confusion. Remember that not all members are native English speakers. Communication, not correctness, is our goal. When other people (especially new members) fail to search and start new threads on old topics, don't scold them or make them feel unwelcome. The best way to be helpful is by posting a link to a relevant thread or specific instructions for problem solving. Set a good example yourself by searching first before starting a thread if you have a question that may already have been answered in the forums or you want to discuss a topic that may already have been discussed.

He was responsable for his actions and the people he killed.RC-1140 wrote:how the hell did this thread become a nazi thread? My great-grandfather was a SS-Officer, and was a POW, and I'm not proud of him. But what should I do about it. On the other hand, what should he have done about it. Everybody in this time was forced to become a member of the army, and this was the only way he could get support of the state for his family. The nazis commited the most horrible crimes, but the deeds of the allies weren't as glorious as well.
Exactly. At some stage, people where indeed forced into that system and had not many choices. The base for that regime had been laid much earlier and sympathy for Facism was quite wide-spread in that era. Then there where the nationalists, who where against the Nazis, but didn't say no when it came the Blitzkrieg. What happened on 20th July 1944 came too late and should have better been done way before the war. To few people where in the resistance and too many just followed the regime (out of fear or because they had privileges).fossala wrote: Not being rude to your great-grandfather, but if more people stood up it wouldn't of happend.

Don't get me wrong, I was not trying to justify his actions; I'm not responsible for what he did, and I don't agree with it, but I can't change it. The only thing I wanted to express, is that this is nothing to make fun of. Lots of people were directly affected by these tragic events, and it is disrespectful to make fun of it.fossala wrote:Not being rude to your great-grandfather, but if more people stood up it wouldn't of happend.
