EnterTheVoid Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 Sree_OZ: Hitler is a hero in India because Mein Kampf is sold there. But, Mein Kampf is sold across the world including Australia. Sree_OZ: No it is not sold in Australia. It is banned by legislation. But, here are links of bookstores selling it. Sree_OZ: It's a Nazi conspiracy with messed up search engines. Okay, but they also show availability in stores. Sree_OZ: It's banned by legislation. Which legislation? Sree_OZ: I don't know but any country who sells it is a disgrace. Why did you single out and generalize against India? Sree_OZ: Blah Blah Blah. Chalo, thanks for the entertainment. Look forward to reading the legislation tomorrow. Later! You should really change your name to "The_Misinformer", suits you better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EnterTheVoid Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 The_Misinformer, in addition with the monicker change, consider a profile picture change to "Baghdad Bob" instead of that ghastly lizard picture you have currently. Than, you are good to go! :wtg: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desi Cartman Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 I call it the usual Gujju stupidity :--D , the man is low on General Knowledge although his business acumen would be second to none. Jokes aside, yes Hitler is indeed referred to India as a strict man. Even Hrishikesh Mukherjee used it in many of his movies, Golmaal for example. Although it beggars the question why would anyone want to name a shop after a strict man??? Back to Gujju stupidity then :secret: There is show on ZeeTV called Hitler didi as she is considered strict, they call it General Didi outside India. Most Indians dont even know what Modi - Kangress do for real so why blame them for not knowing a german who died 7 decades ago. As to why they named it Hitler, IMO desis like to give their shops English names and probably they thought Hitler sounds cool :cantstop: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most Indians dont even know what Modi - Kangress do for real so why blame them for not knowing a german who died 7 decades ago. That is typical Indian caricature. Remember in Andaz Apna Apna, after getting a dressing down from Paresh Rawal (the accha waala London returned version) Aamir and Salman (Amar-Prem :haha: ) go - Saala Hitler. Amol Palekar goes "Kaun kahta hai ke kambhakt Hitler mar gaya" in Golmaal. So yeah Hitler equates to strictness in Indian movie culture. That being said I am still not sure why anybody would tag his dukaan ka naam as strict. Gujju stupidity (for Laloo) :hehe: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tapioca Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 These guys are crazy. Many East European types have interacted freely without former mayor and deputy chief minister Mu.Ka. Stalin and not one of them asked that he be forced to change his name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tapioca Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Yeah, that's true. School level books in India mainly focus on World War II in the context of Hitler. There is little mention of the holocaust. Which is terrible. The material in our text books was of the kind that makes him a hero in the minds of teenage boys. Conquest of France in six weeks, invading Russia with the largest land army in history and so on. If holocaust was mentioned at all, I can't remember it. It is not a trivial topic to be described in a paragraph anyway. Unless you read a lot of history, the impressions created in the school are hard to change.

jind Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Speaking of things named after people...Well, India has national awards ,stadiums, airports, schools named after Rajiv Gandhi following the 1984 genocide of the Sikhs and his comments 'When a big tree falls, the ground shakes' in an attempt to justify the organized and planned mass killings of Sikhs in 1984 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their decision to sell it is their prerogative. My personal views are irrelevant to them so I cant understand why you are asking me to speak for their actions.
