Invoking the Nazis

In the last couple of days, a couple of different people have invoked
the Nazis and the holocaust in discussing filtering.  Can we please
not do this?  I don't think there is anything, *ANYTHING*, about
filtering, pro or con, that is even remotely comparable to the events
that transpired in Nazi Germany.  Not only are such comparisons
overheated rhetoric, but much worse, they trivialize the sufferings
of millions.
