I am not the right person to be responding to this, because:
1. I don't use the word "Nazi" in that way. I realize that people used the words Nazi (well, more fascist, actually, but still) in a trivializing way starting in the 1930s, but I don't feel comfortable with who might feel hurt by such a scatter-shot use of language. 2. I don't call people on every stupid thing they say on their journals. 3. I think people, but especially Jews, people who live in cities/countries that were conquered by the Nazis and feminists shouldn't have to explain why they don't want to be compared to Nazis. It just shows the original speaker's complete lack of historical context and/or human decency.
