Youthful hyper-reactionism often is a very ugly thing and should be dealt with most harshly.

Or, you could temper with age and wisdom. Instead of crushing "good initiative, bad execution" you instead teach it to be channeled into experience.

Well that was a quick read, kinda light too, and not in a good way

This is the paragraph that makes the point.


“Once again, racists and haters have taken a popular Internet meme and twisted it for their own purposes of spreading bigotry and harassing users,” said Jonathan A. Greenblatt, ADL CEO. “These anti-Semites have no shame. They are abusing the image of a cartoon character, one that might at first seem appealing, to harass and spread hatred on social media.”


Yeah, I am not sure that stands up to logical scrutiny. Some uses are not all uses. The swastika sure, maybe pepe with the the hitler mustache, but all pepe... I am not seeing valid based on this.

Which was what spurred my reaction. I can totally get calling the Swas a hate symbol. There just aren't any other legitimate uses beyond parody ala Mel Brooks. But this just screams of youthful hyper-reactionism as opposed to a measured ethical stance.


You and your meddling kids win this time TED, but this is not the last you have heard from me, I will be back, bigger and Ethelier than ever , oh yes I will, (after a short nap and maybe a nice slice of Cantaloupe. So refreshin they are).

Don't you need a medical degree to do that?

Of course, if I play chess a few times, i should be able to increase my intelligence enough to get the necessary degree.

Is a username considered different via the usage of underscores?

E.g. is hitlersnipplemilk and hitlers_nipple_milk considered the same name or can that be two different usernames?

If so, I wager that hitlersnipplemilk was already taken and thus why the person behind this latest shenanigan employed the use of underscores.

It's time based, based on the size of the nation when it expired. You would have to ask moderation for more details.

I of course now want to found hitlers vagina.
