I'm afraid you're just a hopeless newbie, dee.  Please read Godwin's
Law.  You see, there's this ancient venerable Usenet taboo on the word
"Nazi".  But we're not allowed to discuss it, because by doing that we
'invoke" Godwin's Law, and that kills the thread. 

But it seems that, as it said in that hopelessly feckless junk flick
"Hawaii" -- *"The_Gods_Are_Changing!*  It was considered unnecessary in
that relentlessly banal non-discussion of Polynesian pseudo-culture to
mention *what* the Gods were changing in that particular case.  Perhaps
it was their underwear. 

But it seems overwhelming clear that, in this particular case, what the
Gods are undoubtedly changing is Godwin's Law.  Clearly we need another
"law" -- perhaps one that states "whatever is forbidden on Usenet
automatically gets discussed endlessly".  Let's call it "Bobo's Law".

As above, so below
