Students found group hailing Hitler
Well this is somewhat disturbing.
Doubt it will amount to much though.
Stoodent Politix, eh? In the UK this would have been funded by the taxpayer and be like man a really radical and important statement discussed on Newsnight by unemployable beardscratchers and Professors of Psychobabble from Crawley Polytech (now the University of Mole Valley). Unless the meetings coincided with Neighbours or Home and Away, in which case there would be a very low attendance.
I think some Taiwanese see Hitler as a guy who came from humble roots, worked hard, and ended up “successful” and “famous.”
That ethical stuff doesn’t figure in, well…you know why.
I taught a student in University named Adolph.
My buddy had a private student named “Hitter”. The first thing he said to me when we met was that he named himself after Hitler because Hitler was “a great man who got many things done”. He was a short, nerdy accountant, and actually very friendly and warm.
They do realize that nazis hate any race but whites right? they’d kill you for being chinese.
Dunno, some of their best friends were Japanese.

Could you imagine him being sent on an overseas business conference to say…Israel, and explaining it just like that?
Just saying its like saying you’re a nazi and you’re black or jew.
Somehow, Chiang Kai-shek’s adopted son Wego Chiang was able to go to Nazi Germany and receive military training there, becoming a Nazi officer, and even taking part in the invasion of Poland.
Think of all those 12 year old kids in Iraq named Saddam Hussein.
Wei-kuo was way cool.
Of course, then there’s the story of an un-named Muddy Basin Rambler who spotted a young lad in full SS regalia strolling down the road near Shi Da. Incensed, he parked his scoot and berated the poor bastard for quite sometime before finally believing the lad’s tale that he was dressed for a play!

The Republic of China and Nazis go way way way way back. Here is a picture of Chiang Wai Kwok,the second son of Chiang Kai Shek.

Yeah, but they weren’t allowed to live there (Germany) and marry the local “Aryan” women folk.
As long as he didn’t fornicate with the woman. And he had to bugger off eventually.
You may find they (The Nazis) would have felt differently had they wanted to come and live in Germany.
A few years ago, one of my students came into the classroom wearing a nazi military jacket. I was immediately offended and asked him to take off the jacket and not wear it to my class again. He said it was just a jacket and that the nazi symbol was similar to a buddhist symbol. It was “just fashion”. I said, no, it’s not fashion, it’s the most common symbol of racial hatred in the world and that by wearing that symbol he was supporting that viewpoint. I told him to make a choice, either leaving the jacket outside the classroom, or leaving his whole self outside my classroom. Perhaps my reaction was a bit over-the-top, but I believe that students need to learn about the world, about history, about hate and bigotry, and about acceptance of others. Of course, there is freedom to speak, but students need to learn how to go about making correct choices. If not, we will end up with people using Hitler’s image to sell washing machines!
How often do you see punk guys here with the Nazi sticker on their scooters? (and yup I know the difference between Buddhist sign and Nazi) I have one living in my building.
So silly…so yes, Nazis hate blacks…but also anyone else that isn’t white…including Taiwanese. I’m picking at the sticker and get a bit off every day:)
I don’t get most people’s outlook here anyways…they freak out at dark skinned people, wouldn’t want to be taught English by African Americans etc…but hell they want to listen to Hip Hop, play basketball and look like little Nelly look-alikes with their Timberland boots?
oh well…don’t think too much (or at all) :loco:
Look real close the middle part of the TV commercial “Pacific Furniture” is running right now.
That ain’t the ‘peace sign’ them folks is doing.

I don’t know. The Germans made the Japanese “honorary Aryans” and the South Africans made Taiwanese “honorary whites”…
Just another example of Taiwan rebel youths following a fad 30 years after the rest of the world has outgrown it.
As for the OP, it doesn’t bother me greatly because they’re just a bunch of ignorant kids that have no idea what they’re talking about and probably have no evil motives at all but are just trying to stir up shit, like the above.

You have a Nazi living in your building?

My former brother in law had nazi swastikas with eagles and everything hanging as a fashion statement in his bedroom.
I tore them off. Noone ever muttered a word.
