To be called a NAZI you must meet all of the following criteria:
1) You must hold some obnoxious or vile belief. 2) You must want
to force your belief onto others. 3) You must ignore the logic
and reason of any criticism of your belief.
Consider, I called someone a NAZI after repeated attempts to
appeal to reason and logic concerning the appropriate definition
of Evolution.  I gave several logical reasons why my definition
is better.  The moron NAZI ignored my reasoning, called my
definition private, and then appealed to authority (and, he even
failed to demonstrated that his friendly authorities agreed with
him, in spite of a quote).
As for race and IQ (our past discussion), you didn't meet any
of the criteria.  There's nothing inherently wrong with thinking
that there is signficant diffence in IQ between races.  You
didn't mindlessly dismiss my statements, but rather you countered
with a reference to IQ and the home children are raised in.  And,
I'm not aware that you have any desire to use the government
to force your views on others (e.g. find employers guilty of
racial discrimination when black employees under-perform).
Besides, the problem with the black community isn't low
IQ (nor whites), it's black culture.
