Operators of the historical Auschwitz concentration camp site set up misting showers outside prison gates, angering Israeli tourists who were shocked by the insensitivity.
Nazis used showers to kill millions of Jewish prisoners during the Holocaust, so modern-day tourists were taken aback when they saw an outdoor sprinkler shower system

You know there’s only one word for this!
Not sure what that word is. I think people look too hard for things to be offended by and it’s ridiculous.
Some people are just toooooo sensitive.
American acronym is WTF!
My daughter was there earlier this summer. It was something like 105 degrees out. She used the sprinklers. To her they were set up just like a hose off to the side. It didn’t bother her. We aren’t Jewish but of course that doesn’t mean we don’t care, daughter was deeply moved by the whole experience. But no one in her group, some Jewish, minded the sprinklers— they were actually glad they were there.
Sorry, but some folks are just a bit too sensitive there. It’s hot, dammit, and misting is good.
Any doubts on his those “offended “ folks vote?
Micro-aggression?
Misty Sprinkling Micro-Aggression.
Jeez, go sweat then.
I can see folks observing the similarity. It would be an interesting experience to stand in the cooling mist and reflect on 70+ years ago.
We just visited Custer’s Battlefield - odd to be out with my daughter on the path dotted with white markers where unknown soldiers died. My daughter gently complained about the heat. “Yeah - well at least you aren’t running for your life, uphill - with your legs feeling like lead, with a hot uniform on and wondering if you are going to make it out of here alive today.”
Neither Jewish or Polish but I can guarantee you that Poles will jab you just for kicks.
Showers didn't kill people, gas chambers did.
"Showers" was just the euphemism they used.
Sounds like a phrase of modern poetry college kids will be studying 50 years from now if Hillary wins.
What a dumb thing to say
micro-micro-micro-micro-micro-subatomic aggression...
Ooh, too touchy, there. Seems like a naggeression, of sorts! Hey, a new word! YHIHF! ;)
The solution to the problem is to have two lines entering the area. One is a misting system that is designed to cool humans. The other is a car wash that Jews can enter through.
In that manner, they will be cool without being paranoid about being “misted” by sarin gas.
An example of political correctness gone awry.
