You were very badly treated and I hope you are reinstated and are able to pursue a whopping lawsuit for damages.

Let's be clear, your article was parallel to in late 1930s Germany, printing an article in the Volkischer Beobachter (the Nazi Party's national newspaper) using data and historical analysis to argue that the Nazi animus toward Jews was misplaced and not supported by facts or logic. An act of courage, truly "speaking truth to power," but bound to produce a crushing response.

And I absolutely mean that comparison with Nazi Germany to be as inflammatory as it sounds.

In which way did you mean ‘inflammatory’? Antisemitically or just plain old riled up?

Comparing woke cancel culture racism to Nazi Germany racism. It is inflammatory and an exaggeration at this time, but extend the trend of the last 10 years out another 5 years and it starts to look like Germany ca. 1934. Some ethnicities effectively barred from some jobs and professions, book burnings to purify the culture, etc.

If the progressives could machine-gun conservatives and get away with it, I am certain they would.

It's funny that both are true: the people shouting down "white priveledge" don't believe Jews have a right to their country either...

Um, it's actually the opposite. It's the Leftists who are constantly claiming that whites are privileged who don't believe Jews have a right to their country.
