Nice generalization twist attempt. 0/10.

If someone wears a gray coat, you associate their threads with the Confederate States of America.

If someone wears a Nazi uniform, you associate their threads with Nazi Germany.

Looks like he did. I read his response to mean a normal person can tell the difference between the Nazi Germany of the 30's & 40's and modern day Germany. You're coming across like you are looking for something to be offended over.

You reversed my associations completely. your question was irrelevant.

I was associating Nazi uniforms to Germany, not the way Germans dress to Nazi uniforms. The two associations are not comparable whatsoever.

You were trying to justify someone dressing up as a Nazi in order to represent Germany as their Country

Would you associate their uniform with Germany? If not, which country?

Your argument could not be more stupid and you're twisting what I said. You are making yourself look dumb.

That would definitely send a message to the admins telling them how stupid they are, if someone dressed in Nazi garb on "My Country Day".

How did he do that? There were a lot of Germans who considered the Nazi form of Germany to be their country and were quite proud of it.

I'm associating one thing to another, this is not the same as saying one thing is solely representative of another, as he is trying to make it out like I am saying. Association and sole representation are two completely different things, which GrammarKnotsi clearly doesn't understand.

My kids school had "Hug an Asian Day". I don't think it was official just the kids doing it on their own. The non-Asian kids thought it was funny and the Asian kids enjoyed the hugs.

The obvious reason why he picked a Nazi is that it is offensive, and it would be a punishment of sorts for the school administrators for making it an international day instead of "Merica Day." I don't think it would work as planned though. The kid who thought that was a funny joke would just get in a heap of trouble.

Peazey gets it. It would be a statement to the admins, and yes, probably lead to some sort of punishment.

isn't "'Merica" in itself an insult to americans?

the fat, lazy, entitled, tv watching, geocentric, ignorant, stereotype of americans?

is that the issue? or is it truly a celebration of the country?

i'm not trolling i'm asking seriously, why would they call it "'merica" day?

Most of my posts are unedited, the couple that are were spelling/typo errors.

You've copied most of my posts anyways, go back and you'll see nothing has changed.

0/10, again.
