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.

A few questions:

1. What is a "pseudohistorical elite"?

2. What "powers" do we possess? I would like to know, because I don't
see myself possessing all that much power here.

3. Are you postulating multiple Hitlers, with your use of the plural?

4. Do you think sometimes it would be better to think before you type?

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.

We have done nothing to earn it, except by your bigoted and intolerant
postings. You don't know their horror at all. I do. I've been there. My
people have been there. My people suffered because of the Nazis, all of
them. As one who has German and Jewish blood in his veins, I recommend
you make an immediate retraction.

Even if I didn't know the horrors, no boot would fit me or millions of
other newsgroup posters. The analogy is that of a child who cannot
verbalize his true feelings, thus all not like him are evil.

Apparently so is Nashville. How sick you must be to feel you have to
call someone a Nazi.

I see how as all cowards,Neil has inflamed his surrogate to fight his
battles for him. I was YOU Jimmy who inserted yourself into inclusion.
And for your information, the blood in your viens does nothing to grant
you special knowledge or dispensation. By claiming a special
moral/intellectual superority aginst people who hold certain beliefs
and in your own way seek to silence them you are showing a trait not
unlikea Nazi. Now you seek to disparage a city,Nashville, in a vain
attempt to stir up regional bias based upon stereotypes that are
untrue. How sad a sight that so many years of collective education
were wasted upon you two.
Rob

ps. I sign my posts and do not hide where or who I am.

I never did this, although apparently you think so. Whom have I sought
to silence and how? Against what people with a group of beliefs have I
claimed a superiority?

Hint - If you can't answer the question directly, your accusations are
pure bull****.

Now you seek to disparage a city,Nashville, in a vain

Who was it who disparaged universities first? I merely echoed a
sentiment of yours and replaced the city you work in with the place I
work in. If I knew the place you worked in, I would have used that
instead. Besides, you cannot know my intentions!!!! (famous last words,
we could only hope!)

I guess it isn't as nice when it comes back atcha in the old puss, huh?
You suck at the use of rhetorical devices even worse than your master.
Or is that worser? Or just plain Wurst?

How many of Rob's neighbors still wave the "stars and bars?" Does Rob
have it flying outside his house?

Didn't he himself brag he was on medication? A medication with a known
side effect of anger-control problems?

He's an insurance agent. He's also been known to dabble in selling "not
available in stores" herbal remedies.

Such language from an educated person? This entire conversation began
with me asking a question of Neil. It was, will he retract his
statements calling Chessville, "Chess-vile" now that he has been
published? He then proceeded to drag red herrings into the
conversations and attempted to provoke me. At this point you felt the
necessity to rescue Neil and insert your comments into the thread. If
you defend a Chess Nazi you are not any better than they.

I disparaged no universities. You miscomprehended what was written. At
the risk of being rude, being thin skinned is a not uncommon trait of
the guilty.

Puss? LOL you have called me one of the following:
puss :noun
1. a cat.
2. Informal. a girl or woman: often used as a form of affectionate
address.
3. British. a hare.

Jimmy, do not fight Neil's battles for him or you may aquire his stink.
If you lie down with dogs you wake up with fleas.
