But such Nazi-romanticism is not safe for adults at all. Believe me.

Talk about a slippery slope...

There are a lot of people who think Nazi uniforms, logos, designs, and
equipment were "cool".  That doesn't mean they want to be a Nazi or that
they think that the Nazi (aka: National Socialist German Workers Party)
ideals are similar to their own.

So, to cut a long story short: I'm totally against the censorship thing on
BrickShelf. In cases like this, though, as we have the moderators anyway, • they
should act responsible and not pass every crap just because it's "safe for
kids".

You claim to be against censorship - but you're willing to make exceptions.
One wonders what other human rights might be up for negotiation in your
mind.

It is common today to find anti-alien sentiment in society.  The anti-alien
platform was part of the foundation of the Nazi Party.  I find this much
more worrisome than a couple of red and gray Lego airplanes - especially
since so many supporters of our two major political parties seem to share
similar anti-alien views.

Nationalism regrettably seems to be a major theme in the upcoming
election...
