I've noticed in this forum and in every other one I've ever been to, people love using Nazis and Hitler whenever making arguments or comparisons. Granted, this is a war based game, but it would be somewhat interesting if at least some people made an effort to stop this often misused and nonapplicable analogy. Granted, I hate Hitler as much as the next guy (I'm Polish), but to compare, say, an admin to a guy who massacred over a dozen million people seems to be somewhat of a logical fallacy. Doubt it'll happen, but it never hurts to ask, eh?

True that tF. Fucking ridiculous what the PCs are having us doing.
If I offend anyone, I don't fucking care anymore, okay?
Hey, that's a good disclaimer for me actually.

its called godwins law (aka Godwin's Rule of Nazi Analogies), its a well known problem, first mentioned in the usenet newsgroup October, 16th 1989.

As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches 1.
Perhaps I should clarify... I don't think Hitler should be removed as a frame of reference because it offends me, but rather because it is overused and and often completely irrelevant to the subject at hand. It takes a lot to offend me, actually, but not a whole lot to piss me off. I have a feeling I'm not alone in that respect.
put it in your sig, make it look official and what nottF-voodoochild wrote:

Ja nie jestem polak ale czech, wiem o czym mowisz, ale niech sobie kazdy zwoli swoj nick wedlug siebie, nie kazdy nie lubi Hitlera, sa ludzie ktory mysla ze byl geniusz swojego pokolenie(nie ja), to nie to sobie mysla, byli gorsi ludzie niz Hitler, Hitler nie zabil duzo ludzi, on tylko wydawal rozkazy!

would it be irrelevent to compair gwb to hitler?
yes it would, bush is an idiot and kerry's a liar/ asshole. so i think an idiot being a president is better than a liar. hitler massacred a lot of jews which were uber rich, and he was a really good speach person. Bush did invade iraq, but didnt he do a lot of good? but his ideas was too radical and he makes terrible speaches, remember the one that he talked about freedom? he said the word freedom and victory about 14 times each in his speachroger smith wrote:
