So, you draw an analogy between sexual conservation and nationalist fascism with a dash of genocidal stigmatization.... So if killing 6 million Jews invalidates every value a demagogue held, even if it was a logical one....then the inverse must hold true for our great leaders?

The analogy has nothing to do with genocide of Jews (and not that the genocide was LIMITED to Jews but like everything else, I bet you're clueless about that too).

Unless, I'm missing the point of this thread and it really is about genocide? In which case, here's another from a ditto-head:

"Today Christians stand at the head of this country. I pledge that I never will tie myself to parties who want to destroy Christianity. We want to fill our culture again with the Christian spirit. We want to burn out all the recent immoral developments in literature, in the theater, and in the press - in short, we want to burn out the poison of immorality which has entered into our whole life and culture as a result of liberal excess during the past (few) years."
- Adolf Hitler


Can't be anything BUT genocide of Jews, right?

I blame this on liberalism that has created a society lacking in moral values. Those (and you know what type people they are) who run the media in Hollywood who have saturated the airwaves with filth are to blame as well.

Shocking Photos. These kids have no decency and honor.

This looks like a junior high dance in my town which is rock solid Republican. It's a buzz kill when the parent PTO chaps join in.

Suggesting sexual conservatism was a part of a Nazi thought process might be more accurate. But, of course, not limited to Nazis.

Aww cmonnn..... I've seen your posts and you are such a stickler for the "details", remember? So you would neverrrrr everrrrrr cherry pick a small sample size from one of the most stigmatized tyrants from the one of the most notorious historical regimes and apply those values across a whole demographic in America.

Oh wait... you just did EXACTLY that!

Actually, it is you who is cherry picking by assuming Nazis were only about genocide, but in this case, primarily to deflect from the context of this thread which is about "filth" and "liberalism".
