To think of the Nazis every time I see an FB post that...

[MammaTJ]

says 'Blue eyed people are kind and blah blah blah'.

Although I just saw one that says 'Brown eyes people are............all things wonderful'

OK, I am green eyed, and haven't seen one about me yet!!

But it really does make me think of the Nazis every time I see a generalisation post like this.

It would make me think of stupid people.

It makes me think of idiots.

I've had one of those appear on my FB feed recently, from somebody I really wouldn't expect. I think they meant it affectionately towards their DP, but I was a bit about it too.

Wonder who will be the first 'original' poster to say "der, FB's pathetic, it's the work of the devil". Or similar.

You're being a bit unreasonable.

Ehm, not really, no.

Oh, I dunno ... posting shite on facebook vs conducting pogroms which involve transporting millions to concentration camps and gassing them; it's a thin line.

Actually, it is Wallison, a very thin line between posting about being superior because of your eye colour and really believing people with a different eye colour are inferior and killing them because of it.

I've seen them and I too are yet to see a green eyed one!

I am green eyed but I dont think Nazi. I think "my eyes are indescribable"

Nag, I dont think anything.

I think you're being a bit hysterical OP.

YABU

They aren't saying the other eye colours are inferior, they are just saying why that particular colour is good.

Incidently, the ones Ive seen have green eyes with the brown one.

I am not normally know for hysteria, to be fair!

I am quite a chilled and relaxed person. Maybe I know too many Jewish people.

I think my bio family are jewish.

Green eyes are the best any way!

Not seen it pop up on my page yet but it would make me think of the old blue eyes brown eyes experiment.

It's funny because I think of Nazis when I see Owen Paterson's Nazi marksmen shooting badgers in the woods.

Pure evil.

SP, I wouldn't want to attribute personality traits to them though! Any more than to ginger hair or black skin.

You know what makes me think of Nazis?

Swastikas.

Harriet, yes, that too!

Tyler, you want a badger culling bedate, go start your own thread, there's a sweetie!

tethersend, that works too, although it can be more subtle than that.

Yy. That and concentration camps. Sorry to bang on about it but it's a pretty distinctive way of spotting them.

SP, I seen to have missed a trick somewhere, you mean you were adopted? Had I known, I would have snatched you up!!

Never say never.

But Nazis and their views were around before the concentration camps and before they identified themselves with swastikas. If you want to keeo that very simplified view of the world, you carry on and hide this thread don't let me bother you. If you want to learn how insidious these things can become, then stick around.

I can see your point (as a green eyed Jew!) but it is taking it too far in a way. They aren't saying the other is bad, just that this is good. However, I've on,t had posts which said 'people with green eyes are like x, brown eyes are like y, blue eyes like z etc;' with all good things, which I'm
