Sounds like a tradition to me.

Yes.
A tradition started by Hitler & Goebbels.
Amazing that just because the writer is from Seattle, and maybe a lefty, you guys seem to be blind to the rich irony in all of this.

Rich irony or not, to fixate on the symbol is to completely miss the point. I think that doing so reveals a shallowness in thinking. Attempting to point this out does not mean that the irony is lost on me, its means that I think the supposed “irony” is meaningless

(and a continuation of the endless, simplistic Nazi comparisons that seem to substitute for considered thinking these days)

Irony? Hitler was a lefty too.

He was head of the National SOCIALIST WORKERS Party.
