There ya go. The point of that analogy isn’t to label everyone a nazi, it’s to make you realize that humoring them even a little keeps their ideology alive. The Nazi ain’t the problem, it’s that his ideology was allowed to spread, and to him there’s little difference between quiet objection and quiet acceptance.

There’s a saying; if there’s a Nazi at a table talking to 10 other people, you’ve got 11 Nazis.

I’m not saying you are, but the association and fact that nobody squashed this shit from the start makes any assumptions by your professor warranted.

We get you were in the crossfire here, but I’m just saying this is probably how your professor is going to approach things.

It’s a racist Jew caricature. You humored a Nazi and now the prof assumes you are too, and he’s not entirely wrong.
