...and your senseless quote proves nothing.
I fail to see the relation between Jesus and Hitler employing groups of assassins.
Before you ask it,no,I'm not a christian.

Don't change subject, we were talking about pair-of-tits vs svastika.
Your problem with the swastika is that it represents a force that killed 6 million.
What about if someone had a pro-gun avatar, they must have killed many more people then those who died from tits and Nazis combined.
What about if someone put up the Chinese flag proud of all there country has done, proud that more people died under chairman Mao's reign then under Hitler and Stalin combined. Would you ask for the removal of the Chinese flag?
Originally posted by RavelloI have explained.
Then I reiterate my question to which you didn't answer.
What would you have done and what can we do to stop a genocide in central Africa?
Don't hide yourself behind banal stereotypes and banal labelings..

Had we pressurised the UN and NATO and got them to admit that this was a genocide as the Rwandans begged us to do then we could have achieved something.
The fact that we didn't should make us feel guilt: the fact that we didn't think of it is no excuse.
Originally posted by demonseedYou speak like if you represented your whole nation and could have gone to the UN to tell'em to stop the genocide.
I have explained.

The nazis apropriated symbols and trapings of 'culture' to try to legitamise themselves. they perported to great lovers of fine art for example. would it be offensive to like art stolen by/admired by the nazis? it isn't the symbol thats offensive it's the things the nazis did/do while whearing it. fear/outrage at people using it is only justified if they use it in this context. anything else is irrational and diverts attention from the real issue.
