Does anyone else agree that the word Nazi is offensive in this context? Many will read, we know, but few will post either way. I encourage those who do to say so.

i do not think the word is offensive in this context. the National Socialists were well known for their restrictive behavior and general controlling nature. making fun of the Nazi's is not offensive in my view. making light of what they did certainly is.
and i think you are right in that apparently i do not agree with you, though i do see your point.
