    Before you quote me on bringing back a closed matter, just hear me out..

    I believe in freedom of speach no matter how disrespectful, rude, cruel, or idiotic it is. But in a smaller, respected community, I think people need to understand that anyone who likes Hitler has their head screwed on backwards. Yes, it is an opinion, but it is twisted. I'm not going to stop them though because they aren't doing any physical harm. In a place like Minetime though, I don't think this should be considered "freedom of speach" because Minecraft works much different than real life. The last thing we need is younger players being exposed to this or even anyone for that matter. Some people can be very easily influenced and this is not a good example and an inappropriate use of a plot. While people can like Hitler, they shouldn't be allowed to put up an offensive plot that preaches his name. This is a friendly community, not real world politics, so I think as far as Minetime goes, this should be punishable. Hitler is not only offensive to the Jewish community, but even to the Germans because of the "Nazi" stereotype. I understand Juan already punished this player, but I strongly disagree with some of the other comments. I censored the names for criticism reasons and also just in case they do not wish to be shown. You can read the full thread here. Picture 1.png

    It is his own opinion. Do not try to be mature as you post every one of my posts 'dumb' when you are clearly an idiot.

    That's very mean. Please refrain from bullying other players just because you don't have the same opinion.

    For the love of Notch, please don't start a Hitler debate.

    I agree. You can have an opinion on hitler, but you cannot make offensive plots about him.

    As said in that thread, liking/agreeing with Hitler is like hating Jews, blacks, homosexuals and people with disabilities.

    This is not raciest, it's only raciest if you are bullying them just because they are in a different culture.

    If someone doesn't like his profile picture they can simple click his name and hit ignore.

    Hitler is a very hated man because of the things he did in his lifetime...

    DeAndre doesn't need to change his skin/profile picture if he doesn't want to, but if you don't like it, then you can /ignore him in-game or click his profile picture and hit ignore like YogurtMan4 said above.

    As Dael said, that is very rude. Although I usually am, this isn't an attempt to make myself look "responsible" or "mature". I am simply trying to make a point. You always seem to have a negative opinion on every thread you reply to which is fine except you turn it into an ordeal. I rated a lot of your posts "dumb" because they were in my honest opinion. I'm not trying to spam you with it. A lot of your posts are unnecessary and very hateful. Think about what you say.

    Did you know?
    Hitler never visited a single concentration camp
    Hitler lead the first anti smoking movement
    Hitler established anti-animal cruelty laws
    He was also an aspiring artist that became what he is known as today because his artist career didn't succeed.
    Getting off topic...... xD

    Good for him. Too bad he trashed his reputation after that. I do not mean to start a debate though @smartguy27 so let's try not to. Just wanted to clear a few things up. ;)

    Even though he might have never visited a concentration camp, he's the one who created them, so don't forget that.

    Hitler killed many dogs for fur coats, almost wiping out an entire species. (Or was it Russia?)
