In the News Comparing Trump to Hitler Is worst kind of hate speech
Mike Godwin, director of innovation policy at R Street Institute, created his ownGodwin’s Law to call out these Nazi comparisons, which are commonplace online. Godwin’s Law reads: “As an online discussion continues, the probability of a reference or comparison to Hitler or Nazis approaches 1.” I urge you to read his article here and to get more granular in your comparisons going forward. I urge you to do this not because I am some monomaniacal hater of free speech – far from it – but because I find it deeply insulting to all those who died in the Holocaust to have their sacrifice cheaply denigrated in this way.
