I have to disagree - horrible though it was, there was more to Nazism than
just hate...
Adn does it really matter WHY millions were killed?

I’m not arguing that Nazism is only hate - but that is based on hate. And
yes, it does matter, to me. The people who killed thousands fighting the
Nazis do not bear the same responcibility as the those who killed innocents
for no reason except the color of their skin or the religion.

My bad, I should have said murdered. Soviet murder vs. Nazi murder I don’t se as
much different.

I like your EB MOCs, Lenny, and I think that this one may have crossed the
line in polite society, but I think some of the defenders here have a point.
Why does a symbol make a MOC horrible while others embrace the same spirit
in their MOCs?
|
You’re reading too much into the criticism. My criticism is very simple: The
MOC is potentially deeply offensive, poorly designed, and unfunny. I think
Richie should have posted on an adult only forum (like JLUG). But I am not
calling for his post to be deleted, I am giving my opinion of what he should
have done. That isn’t censorship, thats my free speech.
|
And I disagree - it’s raised a nice discussion, for one thing. This isn’t
obsenity. Offensive to some, sure, but that is what life is all about. And the
MOC isn’t advocating Nazism, either, just dealing with it in a humorous (though
some say failed humor) light.
