According to WHO? besides YOU ...? Kind of hard to make that stick against a book the government granted copyright and never acted to rescind ... No prosecutor in his right mind will even try. But keep shoveling the shit, the ninnies must be fed !
? Are you seriously proposing that "ANNOTATED" hate speech is not "REALLY" hate speech ? ... you got any more of that shit rolled up?

Rich wrote::lol: You just might be right on that one. However Germans in particular and Westerners in general will never move forward to the tasks of today unless they stop this absurd fear around being associated with Hitler and the Nazis. Take eugenics for example, its time that real Liberals stood up and reclaimed Eugenics from the Nazis. Then there's prioritising the defence of our living space, another cause that has been absurdly designated as Nazi. Call these things Nazi if you want, but then most of the regimes in history and pre history have been Nazis.
Not everything the Reich did was irrational ... The Germans really WERE in a box. But Hitler could easily have stopped at Czechoslovakia, or even short of it. Germany could then have stabilized it's economy and rejoined the European Community ... This is actually what his RATIONAL supporters in Europe and the US expected ... He would have been admired. UNFORTUNATELY, he really was just a puppet for reactionary considerations who raised him and Germany as a sword to thwart the Bolsheviks ... Poland was the Road to Russia and THAT is where the Reich was focused.
