An Interesting Question

Discussion in 'Off Topic' started by TurdFerguson1000, Nov 2, 2014.

  1. And so we delve into the philosophy of what makes a person proper.
     
  2.  
  3. Exactly.
     
  4. Yes we do. Society as a whole molds the view and perception of almost everything. You should know this by now.
     
  5. There are plenty of groups current and in history just as evil as Nazis. Maybe the Nazis were a bit stronger than the usual threat
     
  6. But why refuse to accept him as human? He certainly wasn't anything else. It's important to recognise something like that.
     
  7. You're confused on human and person.
     
  8. No, I think you're mistaken. I DO recognize him as a member of the human race. Yet, morally his actions and beliefs do not suggest that he is. It's better that society thinks of him as a monster.
     
  9. And you are confusing who I am talking to. Top of page, OPs post, refers to him as human.
     
  10. He was a very smart human. But a very ignorant and terrible person.
     
  11. If he is perpetually viewed as a monster, it will become increasingly difficult to understand his motivations and see him for what he was: human. The whole "Adolph myth" confuses this in western society; Stalin isn't censored, nor is he the first "monster" people jump to, despite his actions being worse. If you write off Adolph as an anomaly/monster, you're making it easier for the underlying reasons to be forgotten.
     
  12. Had Adolph not become fuhrer, it is highly likely that a more capable and equally ruthless man would have come to power; such was the state of Germany at the time.
     
  13. And insane. He made some very bad choices that ruined his chances for a Thousand Year Reich.
     
  14. No evidence to solidly suggest mental illness of such a magnitude; it was a personality defect.
     
  15. No support and dry your eyes there is not a single nation who doesn't have innocent blood on their hands. This is just the brutality of life no matter how many times you repeat it like some kind of mantra the fact remains, crimes against humanity have and will constantly take place till the end of the human race or the end of government.
     
  16. If I could ask a question to the OP it would be appreciated. Thank you.

    Op. Where are you having problems with Nazis at sir? In the real world and online. I'm am curious of both.

    I don't see very many real nazis in the real world. In mainstream life. Online...I don't really encounter very much nazism. It's not like I visit sites.

    So what fueled this thread is my real question.
     
  17. I'm still looking for the interesting question I was promised... Did anyone find it yet?
     
  18. Everybody has a different perception. Someone who is bad to you may be okay to other people, and other people may see some people as evil and you view them as ok. But you see the biggest problem is principal, if you kill murderers what is to stop you from killing someone to heavily assaulted someone else and put them into a coma. Then it's someone who just committed assault. It's a slippery slope no human can be trusted with which is why we have laws.
     
  19. No I haven't. I don't get the point in this thread.

    If OP were to say he may live in Europe, and the nazis are harassing/beating Islamist, or Muslims I would understand the rehashing of history.

    To make a thread for no reason seems like a excuse. Even if it's not. Some pretext to how nazis effect op would be more interesting in my opinion. It would allow others to understand where you are coming from better.
     
  20. Firstly, the fuehrer of Germany,name censored, started world war 2 because the treaty of versailles was too harsh on Germany. Secondly, they targeted the jews because while most Germans were suffering from hyper-inflation, the Jews were having a peaceful life. When the Germans could not pay the reparations ordered by the Allied Powers, they invaded Germany's land which are rich in resources, obviously this cause the Germans to be furious. In my opinion, the fuehrer of Germany is not wrong but also not right. He fought for his people, this is the right thing to do. He killed innocent beings, which is the wrong thing to do. So this is a two sided discussion.
