I don’t have a problem with Auschwitz doors being part of a halloween display, as Halloween is a time to show death. It also makes it easier to absorb and understand what went on.

Apparently the same thing with people who can’t speak without using foul language - disguised or otherwise...

I don't either, especially since Auschwitz and other camps were scenes of horror and death. Those words on the gate were lies. The only thing that made you free behind those gates was being gassed, shot, or worked and starved to death.

Still too soon. Living members of relatives who died there. If you went as "The Alamo" or "Little Big Horn", it might work, but might not have been seem proper shortly after the event. Even now, if you go as an Aztec carrying a dripping heart, and a knife and fork, some people might not find that clever or thoughtful.

We can’t bend the knee to the offended. That’s how you end up with the cultureless society that liberals have created in the West.

Don’t do anything that might offend somebody, so we end up with the grayest culture in the history of humanity.

Was it like Catch 22 — as soon as anyone got close they would raise the bar?

It was halloween; these days looked upon as a satanic celebration. Satan of biblical fame, you know, the father of lies.

I can't answer your question but this story should fit in the same category you're exploring about people.
