Tss. You know, the thing people have about Godwining threads is that comparing Nazi institutions to modern ones trivialises a system that caused a world war and directly killed 6 million Jews, 250,000 Romany people, thousands of homosexuals, mental patients, mentally handicapped persons and opposition figures. While certain innovations of the Bush administration make its propaganda abroad about human rights and freedom look silly (various dictators have taken to quoting Bush phrases when justifying atrocities), comparing these is obscene.
Yes, it does feel more comfortable to laugh at the Nazis, but our refusal to take this universal taint of the human character seriously has already led to unchecked massacres in Cambodia under Pol Pot, Rwanda, Bosnia and Darfur, to name but a few.
Oh, and the various aspects of Jim Crow caused a lot more death and suffering in America than any present measures. Israel exists today, because in 1945, the world's Jews had reason to believe that there was no nation on Earth where they could feel safe.
Read some history and gain some perspective, okay?
