Flame

A note on the 5/17 thread on Community

Wow, how did that one get past me. That was about as nasty as anything I have seen on Flame.

For the record, I have often disagreed with Lee and seldom fully agreed with him but I have never felt threatened by him or by the way he expresses himself. There have been left extremist posters that have been more offensive imo and I never felt the need to call for our liberals to turn on those individuals.

The invocation of Hitler, Nazism and all the peripherals deserved to be called out by those moved to do so. There will always be plenty of takers.

The important thing for those of a later generation to remember is that the NAZI movement was composed of a gang of boorish perverted thugs. There was nothing brave or glorious in Hitler's reich any more than there is honor and justice in the mafia.

Our war is against extremism in any form and the most difficult task in this war is to resist extremism in ourselves.
