I don’t loath using it. I am curious about your reaction to labels. I criticised Hitler but it was not enough for you. Same thing with feminism.
You didnt criticize him at all, you said you didnt like 'what he did with concentration camps'.
You have stronger criticism for feminists, and that says quite a bit about your politics.
I also said he is not getting any peace or humanitarian prize. I also said he killed Jews (killing is bad imo).
I find your assumption about my views based on use (or lack of) of a single word fascinating. This is very similar to how feminism is promoted and men are grilled for words while actions are ignored.
A euphemism and an understatement of fact is pretty illuminating on your views of the world's most famous mass murderer.
Ok, I quit. Let your mind make assumptions. I might be a Nazi, I might kill kittens in my free time, I might steal from beggars, let your imagination run wild.
You could be, yea. But its not at all because you refuse to use particular labels, but because you seem all too comfortable running cover for people who fit them.
