Not everyone you hate is a nonce

Much to the surprise of social media users, sometimes other people hold different opinions, without being the spawn of satan. Remarked one teenager: 'I really dislike that guy's haircut, I'm pretty sure he's a terrorist.'


Of course it's just possible that the middle-aged ar$ehole who doesn't share your taste in movies is not a kitten molester or the cause of the black death.


Explained one sociologist: 'Statistically it seems unlikely that 99% of people you interact with are Nazis. Not even 99% of Germans in 1939 were Nazis - and, other than Lawrence Fox, they were arguably their biggest fans.'

Study finds Godwin's Law actually a Nazi invention

It has long been accepted wisdom that the first person in a debate or argument to resort to accusing someone of acting like a Nazi has lost the argument, and the concept is generally attributed to Mike Godwin in 1990. New research has discovered that the so-called Godwin's Law actually goes back a lot further.


'In 1939 the generals governing Poland are recorded as calling Adolf Hitler a Nazi, and they certainly lost that argument,' said an expert today. ' Apparently the French and Belgium leaderships called him a Nazi about that time, too. Holland, well, they could have used more circumspect language,' he suggested. 'Perhaps if these leaders of countries had moderated their language, perhaps like Gary Lineker, World War Two might have been avoided,' he added.


The expert view regarding the debate about the UK migrant deportation process that has resulted in the likes of Priti Patel and Suella Braverman being likened to Nazis is that Godwin's Law doesn't apply. 'If it walks like a duck,' suggested the expert.

Government shows how unlike Nazis they are by swiftly and ruthlessly silencing dissent

The non-Nazi credentials of the Conservative Government were unmistakeable when they forced someone off air for not blindly towing the Government line.


“This quelling of free-speech is so unlike anything Nazis would do that I’m insulted you’d make that comparison” said Suella Braverman, Minister for Propaganda and Public Enlightenment.


Some people have said that any TV presenter who implied the Government was in any way like Nazis was not impartial and that they should be replaced with an unquestioning Government mouthpiece. These were exactly the same people who loudly boast that they’d have bravely spoken up in the face of Nazi censorship.


Preparations are currently in full-swing at Whitehall for Not Act Like A Nazi Day, on April 30th - Hitler’s Birthday. The celebration has been introduced by the Government to prove they’re not like Nazis by brutally persecuting anyone who says they are, then saying “see”.


Asked if the Tory Government was efficiently evil like the Nazis, a leading Historian of 20th century Germany said “not really…the Nazis were efficient.”
