Anne Frank Center Blasts Tim Allen for ‘Deeply Offensive' Nazi Germany Remark

And in so doing they highlight the exact double standard Tim Allen is referencing in his comment.
For example, Ashley Judd (among countless others Leftists) goes on a tirade comparing Donald Trump to Hitler? No problemo, says the Anne Frank Center.
Tim Allen says this: “You gotta be real careful around here, you know. You’ll get beat up if you don’t believe what everybody believes. It’s like ’30s Germany.”
And the Anne Frank Center goes apoplectic, demanding an apology.
Thanks for proving his point.

“Tim, have you lost your mind?” said Steven Goldstein, executive director of the Anne Frank Center. “No one in Hollywood today is subjecting you or anyone else to what the Nazis imposed on Jews in the 1930s – the world’s most evil program of dehumanization, imprisonment and mass brutality, implemented by an entire national government, as the prelude for the genocide of nearly an entire people.”
Added Goldstein: “Sorry, Tim, that’s just not the same as getting turned down for a movie role. It’s time for you to leave your bubble to apologize to the Jewish people and, to be sure, the other peoples also targeted by the Nazis.”

What's funny is that I don't think Tim was even referring to Jews as much as how an ideology permeated Germany and as a German (non-Jew) you had to fall in line of suffer the consequences.

What a bunch of touchy pusses.

Tim needs to tell Mr. Goldstein to GFY.

So its okay to say Trump is "literally Hitler" but not okay to reference Hollywoods gestapo tactics to contrary viewpoints?
Mmmmkay.

Bunch of hypocrites. If they are going to whine about things at least make it consistent.

I'm offended that they are offended

True, but it doesn't matter when you come from the "wrong side" of the political fence. Meanwhile, Trump has been referred to as "literally Hitler" about 4,000 times now. Somehow, that's okay.

I'm sick of the Nazi comparisons on both sides.

quote:The point, though, is that a liberal celebrity says Trump is Hitler and they don't say a word. A conservative celebrity says Hollywood is suppressing individuality like Nazi Germany in the 30's and they demand he conservative celebrity apologize. In their demand they illustrate the EXACT point Allen is making. They're just too isolated in their liberal bubble to see it.
Survivors of the Holocaust are nearly all gone and now everyone with an inkling of Jewish heritage can forever demand apologies and claim victim status for horrors they themselves were never fricking subjected to.

I went to the Anne Frank house about a year ago and at the end of the tour there are some video monitors warning visitors of new "hate" groups on the rise throughout Europe and other parts of the world. Interestingly, they highlighted several groups who were against their countries liberal immigration policies as being right wing hate groups. These people are so far left, they view everyone that doesn't think like them as Nazi's, which was basically Allen's point.

Exactly correct. He was referring to the "progressive" social elite and intelligencia of the Germany of the 1930's who would go on to enable the very atrocities which the Ann Frank Center should exist to remind everyone of.

It'll be simply paradise for Jews once the Muslims are in majority.

So what you're telling me is that if Tim Allen speaks up, he would get sent to a Concentration camp, be forced into slave labor, and eventually killed???
Gives a literal meaning to "Literally hitler".

Check out the Twitter account for the Anne Frank Center. Their political leanings aren't even remotely hidden.

No what he's saying is it's time to round up all the left-wing loons and ship them off to internment camps.
