Were the Jews who voted against Hitler also "one-issue" voters? When Hitler gets brought up in a discussion on FR, you know it's getting a bit dicey.

When Hitler gets brought up in a discussion on FR, you know it's getting a bit dicey.This thread is over:
Goodwin's Law of Usenet
Professor Goodwin, U of Illinois, in 1981 made the observation that Usenet discussions gravitate downhill.
He postulated that as the length of a discussion thread grows, the probability approaches one (1) that one participant will introduce the terms "Hitler" or "Nazi".
The custom has evolved that the first party to utter "Hitler" or "Nazi" has lost the discussion, and the thread terminates.

Why does everyone always point to the bad stuff Hitler did?
I am sure his mother liked him.
I am sure he giggled and clapped his hands when he won a game of "Candy Land."
Sheesh! We have become such a negative people.
