I don't like it either. I think I'm the only one on here who takes special pride in being non-European. I remember some people got really fucking PISSED when I made that "Mongoloid admixture in Slavs" thread, even though it was an honest question and I meant no harm whatsoever when I made it.
What you meant is one story, what could be the interpretation is another story, you need to differiate between bare facts and their interpretation and not only by you but also others.

Its called 'offending by an association' and the object you associate someone with doesnt have to be any bad, its just that the association exists and some people use or used it for wrong (or selfish) reasons.


Translating into this case- Nazi used 'Mongol connection' to persecute people. The problem with this is that there was no Mongol connection (or no such as they presented) and that even if it had been there, it still wouldnt have been a reason to kill people or persecute them-so its wrong on two levels- a crime based on two lies.

Its like imagine I said 'SmartCelt should be killed cause he is a gay'- one thing is, I lied about gayness, two- I used it ax an excuse to kill you, but I have no right to kill you even if you are a gay. And now imagine all the forum is repeating 'Smart Celt is a gay we need to kill him' and one day some new member comes and starts a thread 'what do you think, is SmartCelt a gay, he looks and behaves like, I think he must be a gay'.
Its very similar.
