Mention of or calling a nazi is an automatic disqualification and loss of debate.

In most cases, that is quite true. This is, however, a case of the boy crying wolf, where the wolf has actually arrived on the scene.

Mention of or calling a nazi is an automatic disqualification and loss of debate. I agree. We should forget any of it ever happened.

Mention of or calling a nazi is an automatic disqualification and loss of debate. Actually, no. Godwin's Law is explained here.

Mention of or calling a nazi is an automatic disqualification and loss of debate. So you would not allow society to learn any lesson from the Holocaust. Then those who have misused the term have beaten you.

It's about time this bit of internet debate etiquette comes to an end, because it serves only those who refuse to consider evil. If we agree as conservatives and Christians that evil is to be shunned, fought, and rejected, then how can we even discuss it unless we compare present instances of evil to past instances of it. Claiming you can't mention Nazis, facilitates, if nothing else, holocaust denial. Is that what you're pitching?
