And LOL at "every action he takes is counter to the Nazi ideology". That's a good one!

That's why his chief advisor is a white nationalist. That's why he has refused to condemn Neo-Nazi murdering terrorists. That's why his bedrock support consists largely of racist idiots. That's why he received the endorsement of basically every racist group out there, from the KKK to the Nazi Party of America.

Eva was not Jewish, did not practice Jewish, and was all but not religious aside from attending a Catholic school. Hitler's associates also were not Jewish. It is important to note Jewish and Slavs as those two groups the Nazi's inflicted the most damage on, and were the focus of Hitler's, thus the Nazi regimes hate and atrocities. Trump being married to a Slav, and having a daughter and son-in-law he thinks of highly is pretty much counter to everything Hitler stood for. That is why I stated it is interesting if any neo-nazi supports Trump, as he basically counter to all philosophy that have.

Name an action Trump has taken that is aligned with the Nazi ideology. I am not talking basic government things all governments, despite political structure, take like building roads or military investment, I am talking a specific Nazi party ideology. It would be basically impossible for a president of the US to take some actions due to our gov structure.

You can hate Trump all you want, I know I do, but equating him to supporting nazis or something is stupid, and to be obtuse as to not being awed as why any nazi would support him is obtuse.

Wow. Amazing stuff.

Well, the Nazi's brought that country to it's knees, everyone suffered horrifically and perhaps they don't appreciate foreigners rubbing their noses in it.

Word to the wise: learn the culture before traveling abroad.

Where does "statism" enter into the picture here? Seems to me this was a private matter entirely.

Blaming alcohol is kind of silly. I enjoy beer, and have never given a Nazi solute. The American was a victim of his own ignorance and stupidity. As a result, he has no one to blame but himself.
Alcohol 8 AM? Sounds like this tourist has a few issues beyond being politically inappropriate.

It sounds like the "nazi" guy was acting in an insensitive way and maybe needed an education as to why it is not appropriate to salute like Hitler in Dresden.

Why are so many people so ready to jump to anger when they see something they don't like?
No the disease is ignorance, hatred, and racism, exactly what caused all the problems in CVille this weekend.


The fact you are bothered by Liberalism more than public displays of hatred and bigotry says quite a bit.

Dresden has always been a bone of contention, indeed the statue of Bomber Harris in London is controversial.

Alcohol wasn't the cause. Stupidity on the part of the tourist was the cause.
