A word on the American Neo-Nazi Party. Does anyone else see the sick irony in people belonging to a group whom the original Aryan Nazis looked down on as an inferior species and would never have allowed to join the party (if indeed they let them live at all).

For fear of hijacking this thread any further, I refrained from mentioning my own favorite irony.

When you see these neo-nazi skin head Neanderthals spewing their submoron rhetoric, try to remember one thing. These fuckwits would have been among the first on the trains. Such genetically impure, undereducated morons would have gotten no farther than the Kommandant’s soap dish.

Think about it. Would you have washed with any of these intellectually challanged poster children for abortion?

Boy, you guys are giving Nazis a lot of credit.

In practice, the “superior Aryan race” thing was a gigantic load of crap. There is, of course, no such thing as an “Aryan race.” Most Nazis were just as mongrelesque as anyone else. I mean, look at a picture of Heinrich Himmler; the guy looks like that stupid kid in sixth grade who used to eat his own boogers and always cried when you played dodgeball.

The Nazis tended to make up stuff as they went along to fit the most recent political needs, as evidenced by their alliance with Italy. Italians didn’t fit into the “Aryan” mold so they whomped up some convenient propaganda about them being descended from the heroic Romans. About the only consistent position they tried to hold was against anyone even vaguely Jewish, and even that was a mishmash at times.

Believe me; the Nazis would and did take ANY non-Jew they could.

As to their education, the resumes of major Nazi functionaries is, on the whole, unimpressive. Hitler wasn’t exactly at the top of the intellectual heap. Nazis were and are very likely to fall into a remarkably narrow class of highly authoritarian (not autocratic) underacheiving sociopaths with severe psychosexual problems. Oedipal complexes are as common in a room full of Nazis as swastikas.

I gotta say the German-bashing is way out of line. Yes, the Nazi era was horrifying, but the generation that committed the crimes are in nursing homes now, for the most part, and the new Germans are deeply ashamed of their history. Are there neo-Nazis in German? Sure, but we got’em in Idaho and Montana.  
I’ve traveled around Europe and Asia and I’ve met a lot of Germans, all of whom were unfailingly cool people, not to mention the hot blonde German tour guide I shagged in Guilin, China. Woo-hoo!  
Long story short, people are too complex to be easily sorted into categories by nationality. Free your mind, and your butt will follow!

That’s just the sort of thing an American would say.

Is your surname vary as you rotate the fruit which you so carefully cram up your arse?

ponch, I think Gary was making a joke. I found it funny, in any case. Although that doesn’t necessarily make something a joke: if someone slips on a banana peel, I’m in stitches too 😉

Question, ponch - would you care to elaborate on what you’re annoyed at, or shall I just guess that you’re a dull idiot with problems? Actually, going on your postings in this thread, you probably don’t need to answer that one.
