Do we suspend Godwin's law? by Slamlander2004-07-12 04:45:28
  I thought Godwin's law was more like Murphy's Law by kiroh2004-07-12 07:54:03
    Godwin's Law explained. by Ravenlock2006-11-19 12:55:59
      Thanks, but you'll note my quote comes from there (n/t) by kiroh2004-07-12 08:38:21
        As does this: by Ravenlock 2004-07-12 08:45:45
So, what this means in practical terms:

(1) If someone brings up Nazis in general conversation when it wasn't necessary or germane without it necessarily being an insult, it's probably about time for the thread to end.

(2) If someone brings up Nazis in general conversation when it was vaguely related but is basically being used as an insult, the speaker can be considered to be flaming and not debating.

(3) If someone brings up Nazis in any conversation that has been going on too long for one of the parties, it can be used as a fair excuse to end the thread and declare victory for the other side.
