Unfair generalizations or ridicule about nations, cultures, ethnic or racial groups, belief systems, organized religion, gender, age groups, marital status, sexuality, handicapped people and so forth.
It does happen from time to time on Fluther. For example comments like “Germans are famous for their solutions” (meaning the final solution to kill all Jews).
Whenever I read something like this, I’m genuinely shocked.
Jews in Germany had been German citizens as well (Einstein was a German Jew for example). Did they create their own suicide solution? What about the majority of Germans who didn’t vote for the Nazis in the final free election on March 5, 1933 before the totalitarian system was fully established?
Are Americans famous for their lynching solutions of black people? Or is the Ku Klux Klan famous for its lynching solutions? I think there’s a difference. And yes, the Nazis are famous for their heinous “solution”.
