In order to invoke Godwin, someone must be likened to a nazi or
compared to Hitler.
Godwin's Law
/prov./ [Usenet] "As a Usenet discussion grows longer, the
probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches
one." There is a tradition in many groups that, once this occurs,
that thread is over, and whoever mentioned the Nazis has
automatically lost whatever argument was in progress. Godwin's
Law thus practically guarantees the existence of an upper bound
on thread length in those groups.
Don't see it. If anything this refers to the victims of N and H. |
