Lately, the propensity to blast political opponents with inappropriate labels has intensified. Having only a weak knowledge of history (authentic history no longer being taught), too many Americans are not equipped to evaluate those false accusations. That’s dangerous.
An egregious example is the often-bleated label “Nazi” applied to anyone the speaker or author dislikes. But it’s nonsense. “Nazi” refers to the National Sozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei—Germany’s 1930s and 1940s National SOCIALIST Party.
