Chilly Posted June 17, 2005 Posted June 17, 2005 I agree with Jon Stewart's point tonight: STOP BEING !@#$ING STUPID ABOUT COMPARING STUFF TO HITLER. The Republicans have been doing it (unlike a lot of you), the stupid idiot Dems have been doing it, just stop! Rant off.
ExiledInIllinois Posted June 17, 2005 Posted June 17, 2005 It is a benchmark for how far a society could sink? As for a average German, things began to cook along pretty good when Hitler took power... Until, you noticed that some of your neighbors were missing and nobody said a word! It is kinda silly though... But, very real in a "HotPocket", apathetic/vindictive culture. I find no harm reminding people. Through all the silliness, the real harm falls when people forget... They become doomed to repeat mistakes. All sides are gonna throw barbs. Until a even greater benchmark (as per the first sentence) comes along that we can relate to, I guess Hitler and Nazism will be bandied about. "Do I contradict myself? Very well, then I contradict myself, I am large, I contain multitudes." ~Walt Whitman
RuntheDamnBall Posted June 17, 2005 Posted June 17, 2005 That was an excellent segment. The man is at his best when he pulls no punches.
BillsGuyInMalta Posted June 17, 2005 Posted June 17, 2005 "When a speaker compares someone to Hitler, it not only demeans the speaker...but it also demeans Hitler. I mean, the guy worked SO hard at being evil!" A hilarious segment.
