- While dreaming of sugarplums, Grzegorz Albinowski sleepily stated:

- |
- | The Nazis has killed 6,000,000 of Polish citizens during WW2 (actually
- | half of them were Polish Jews). Every family has lost someone.
-
- Ok, thats fine.
-
- | The Commies has killed ?,???,??? of Polish citizens during and after WW2.
- | Every family has lost someone.
-
- OK, thats fine again.
-
- | For 50 years we managed to survive in the middle of the biggest experiment
- | on the globe ever (called socialism).
-
- Debatable, but... I won't quibble.
-
- | And now some of people in the society I always believed to be normal put
- | an equal sign between me and the nazis (this was not directly expressed
- | but I have been put into the same category)
-
- No, this is where I must disagree. The only person who has
- done this is yourself. We have said that The Nazis were a Rightist
- regime. At least in this country, the question of what type of regime
- The Nazis were is not in debate. You stated you are a Rightist. That's
- fine. You made the artificial equal sign that all rightists are Nazis.
- This is simply false. it isn't a symetric situation. Are all Nazis
- Rightists? Yes. Are all Rightists Nazis? Obviously Not. No one on this
- list has accused you of being a Nazi, and i doubt anyone will. This is
- a rational list filled with rational people. Unless you demonstrated
- traits to indicate you were a Nazi (which, I repeat, you have Not), no
- one will accuse you of being a Nazi. OK?
