I've been thinking about use of the term "Nazi" - found this article from last year
http://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/opinion/nazism-is-an-abomination-not-a-term-of-casual-abuse/news-story/c5758e1893e03ed0d4fd0820e79d089aIn reading it, I guess it is shocking to me that we find ourselves where we are. I wonder if the author of the article would now change his mind after seeing what is now happening - and what is being emboldened by the monster in the white house.
Hitler was as bad as it gets. That we are freely using the term - that those in Charlottesville were using the term to describe themselves - represents how low we are now going....again.
And this really is incredibly sad, depressing, and frightening.
