Again, what you're saying would be valid if and only if what I meant by the words "National Socialism" was or included "racism and ethnic cleansing". I don't, so it's not.
Since you and I use the term "National Socialism" differently, it makes no sense to keep pushing this. I say "dog", you hear "cat" - this back and forth won't get us anywhere.
What I do explicitly and unambiguosly state is that I oppose racism, period. Therefore, opposing the racism I see in Israel is nothing if not consistent - the opposite of hypocrisy.Novus America wrote:Ethnic cleansing and racism is a fundamental aspect of National Socialism. It is a vital part, and always has been. Again Hitler literally coined the term. He created it. What you claim to view it as does not change what it is. National Socialism is literally built around the concept of a ethnostate. That is its very presmise, its very reason to exist.
And yes bias is important as you admit. Herein lies the problem. People are going to have a hard time talking rationally or taking seriously somoeone with extreme bias, especially one that makes them angry.
Again, you and I understand two very different things by the term "National Socialism". The fact that you see it to mean "cat", while I see it to mean "dog", does not mean I am being a hypocrite for stating that I both support it and am "anti-cat". This metaphor has run its course, I think.
In any case, this entire thing is completely irrelevant to the topic. I've addressed your concerns. If there is to be any further debate about this, it must happen elsewhere, not here.
And as per my edit, I will not debate with you further on any subject.
