Bomb attacks in Dresden

Unfortunately, arson attacks on mosques and on refugees centers are the order of the day in Germany.

That's the society's immune system kicking in to try to fight off an invasive infection.

What you think of as xenophobic thugs are white blood cells on two legs.

Oh, gee, this likening of a minority group to infectious agents sure reminds me of something...

Oh, right!

Adolf Hitler said:
By the way, anyone who sold to Jewry as England did will sooner or later die of this plague, unless he manages to pull himself together at the last minute and remove these bacteria from his body by force.

This might be relevant:

And when the last Jew will be killed from this world, then peace would be established in the world – so much so that snakes would roam among people but would not bite. Wolves and goats would drink water from the same quayside and goats would not have any fear from wolves. It is the guarantee of world peace when the last Jew is slain. As long as there are Jews in this world, peace cannot be established in the whole world.

Comparing Nazis to this is inappropriate. They weren't as extreme.

You are saying that the Nazi Party, and specifically Hitler, who massacred millions of Jews is less extreme than a random cleric from Pakistan who isn't important enough to have his own Wikipedia page?

Yes.

Importance and potency of both groups is another matter, obviously.

I guess it isn't a Godwin violation if the story is set in Germany. :confused:

No, it is not a Godwin violation when a poster is mouthing Nazi like crap.
A Godwin is when somebody without any real cause drags Hitler or the Nazis into the conversation.In the case of the poster in question, he has a long history of posting racist rants that strongly resemble those given us by Hitler, Goebbles,and company.
 
Then I think we differ on the way that we are using the word 'extreme'.

I wouldn't know. Certainly the opinion expressed in the quote advocates actions beyond what even the Nazis preached and practiced about the Jews. How would you call that?

My cousin used to live in Dresden.

He described it as a Neo-Nazi hellhole with a nice Opera House.

Their goals seem equally extreme from where I'm sitting.
