Hello Bob!

 RC>> But the fact remains, Nazism is meant to be a slur.

 BK>  And communist or socialist is not? Wrongo!

The Nazi's committed great attrocities, while communists dont have a golden
track record, they havent come close to the scale the Nazi's partook in...

Calling someone a Nazi in Germany is illegal for instance.

 RC>> At the very least, socialism is the direction you yourself

 RC>> the whitehouse is trying his best to take us there..

Ignorance my foot, you people are striving real hard to make govt as
engrained in our lives as close relatives would be.

Businesses can be made to go away, simply dont patronize them.. Short of
rebellion, the same thing cant be done for govt.

You might say vote them out, but in your case you wont be happy until the
socialists get replaced by stricter ones.

 RC>> Are you saying the left wing isms are well known slurs?

 BK>  Nowhere is it said what it is, only what it is used as. Your own
 BK>  sentence above is an example. Copied immediately below.

 RC>> But the fact remains, Nazism is meant to be a slur.

Calling someone a Nazi is lke cussing, calling you people socialists or
communists is calling youout for what you are.
