You should perhaps consider who the Nazis were and what they did to
people's lives, how many people died in the cause and then come back
and consider whether this is a case of Nazism.

Consider how many poor Jews were carted off to camps. Exterminated.
Experimented on. Treated like trash.

Consider how many soldiers died on all sides.

Consider how the civilians who had to live under the regime, and died
because of it.

Consider those, who for five years after the war, were happy to get a
crust of bread.

Consider our friends the British who died by bombs, civilian no excuse.

Then come back and call me a Nazi. Unfortunately, people like you
trivialize real issues by engaging in this sort of discourse.Your
immaturity is very unappealing, and I don't see anyone coming forward
to support your wrong-headed stance.

I trivialize nothing. I know their horror. I also aksed if the boot
fit, wear it as Neil does. IF it does not apply to you , prove it by
your actions, words and deeds. Currently you and Neil have done nothing
to dispel the application of the term Chess Nazi from yourselves.

Academia is a safe place for the intellectually intolerant. Pseudo
intellectuals should be happy with a less austere accomodation.
