Grammar Nazi

If you don't mind me joining, here, even though a bit late. I think we all have to remember how absolutly abominable an event the Shoah was in particular, and WW2 in general. We're talking about the worst mass murder event in a history already horrific in itself with incessant blood sheds and carnages, cities demolished to the ground, entire populations wiped, women and children taken in slavery, etc, etc, etc. That's, in my opinion (and i don't think i'm being too unfaithfull to smc's view on this), the focal point of the matter. We're talking about such a terrible, unparalleled event, it's almost beyond comprehension. I apologize if i seem over zealeous in words, here, but the historical reality is such indeed that it defies expression. (Schindler's List and Saving Private Ryan are not just movies). That is why, in my opinion, the word "nazi" should never be used lightly, and especially not for any futile object. It has become almost a farcical commonplace applied to anything, and it's terrible. We have to remember what's at stake here to this very day, we have to remember the horror nazisim caused to the world and the sacrifices we've had to make to overcome it. It's part of who we are now. Young or old, we should never fail to remember. Our use of words in such matters is symptomatic of our historical consciousness.

curiousguy221, i know you weren't malintentioned in all of this. But once again i agree with smc: we should close this thread...
