Making references to the fact millions of people were killed isn't funny, however you look at it.
Although, it wasn't a big reference.

Ahem. Sorry, double post.

Can't believe this thread is still open...
Going to have to say that the words "sieg heil" are not intrinscially offensive (at least to me, everyone has there own opinions). I will throw in Panzer, Luftwaffe, Wermacht, Krupp, Messerschmitts, Focke-Wulf, blitzkrieg, kriegsmarine, schwerpunkt, etc. as other words that were used quite often during WWII yet don't have direct link to Nazism (which everyone will agree was/is abhorrent). Heck you could even thrown in "Jawohl"! Save the flames and anger towards the truly ignorant who defend/embrace Nazism (sadly enought there are more than a few of them out there) as opposed to those who use German words.

As a member of one of the political minorities that people like to be angry against (no I'm not a Nazi, Nazi's didn't like my kind in WW2 either) I have to agree with that post. It's not the words that make the evil, it's how the words are/were used.

I didn't use the words for comedy, I used the words because up until 1943, Germans had the best army and were pretty much unstoppable.

Militarily, no, but they used what they had best, until Hitler's lack of military ability overran the achievements of his generals...

Yeah, they were unstoppable until the big nations actually started caring.

I think this is going a little off-topic, I suggest you create a new thread in the "Real World" forum if you want to talk about Nazi Germany.

Your comparing Magnagora to Germany? Your stupider then I thought.

Two front war.
Silvanus2004-12-21 22:55:22
If you take out the various victims of the Holocaust and add in Merian and Elfen, you do have Magnagora as Germany.

Lady Lisaera already asked that you make a real world topic about Nazi Germany
