I can buy a nazi flag from any number of places easily.
I cannot buy a Confederate flag from nearly any of them.
I cannot buy George Zimmerman's gun from any number of places.
But I sure can buy guns made and used by genuine murderous Fascists from those places.
It's interesting to see whom vendors will stick up for when people sell things on their sites.
Hitler is the synonym for pure evil because of his genocide....but Pol Pot, Stalin, Mao, ect get a footnote, but really don't raise hackles the way Adolph does.
ReplyDeleteSometimes it's just lazy people who just learn what is fed to them and not stray from that path...there are no movies of John Wayne facing the forces of Pol Pot... Or High School history doesn't spend as much time on the Communist Revolutions in Russia and China compared to WWII.
And of course there are the evil people who will paint Hitler as a 'winger (Same with the Confederate States) but secretly see people like Mao, Pol Pot, and Stalin as people with great ideals and ideas...but poor execution.
Or even those who are so repugnant to think that the Reds were AWESOME, and they would be the fat bureaucrats looking out their limousine windows at the breadlines en route to supervise the operations of the furnaces....
