    Hello,

    I'm new to these forums so I thought I would introduce myself.

    First of all, I'm a Nationalsocialist. So if my ideological standing is not welcome here, just go ahead and ban me immediately. I'm not going to bother hiding my opinions, but I will still debate in a civilized manner without resorting to insults.

    Okay, let's move on... I'm a 19 year old Swedish boy with Finnish ancestry. My main interests are history, gaming, driving snowmobile in the winters and playing sports. I'm mostly into World War 2; infact, the very first books I started reading were about WW2. But I still don't know all the details, and that's partly the reason I joined, as I want to learn more. Other than that I'm interested in Ancient Greece, the Roman Empire and the Medieval, and also a bit in Norse & Greek mythology.

    Kommando,

    Support of National Socialism in itself is not necessarily a reason for banning. Holocaust denial, support of genocide, adoration of Hitler and his cronies, disruptive behavior and activities similar to those I have mention are.

    Converse in a civil manner and leave the Heil Hitlers out of your posts and banning will not be needed.

    I must say I almost obliged you on your request for an immediate ban, but decided against it. Post what you like, but if there is anything inappropriate, I wont bother hiding my opinions either.

    I'd also like to introduce you to this gentleman: :pzp: He has strong opinions also. :D

    I don't believe it's National Socialism that is the problem, it's the nutty ones that try and implement it.:dazed:

    I suggest that at 19 you probably do not yet know what you are but if you are open to civilized debate, you are well on your way to finding out. Just be open to discussion and other viewpoints and you may find that you describe yourself differently in ten years. If not, you will at least have a body of discussion to back up your views!

    Cheers!

    Howdy and welcome to the forum. I agree. National Socialism in itself is not offensive. The advocation of hate and stirring up trouble by individuals is. I welcome your candor and look forward to future discussions. Happy posting.

    Welcome, I can only hope and pray that you will learn here what your "party" will most likely not teach you.

    I agree with you to an extent but would that not depend on which version of national socialism you are referring to? My understanding is that national socialism is not specific to the German National Socialist Party. There were national socialist parties prior to 'Nazism'. There still are national socialist parties today that have nothing to do with the German nazi party or it's values. They define themselves as socialist and patriotic, without being racist.

    I would also think that we welcome everybody regardless of race, sex, religion, politics and creed as long as they abide by the forum rules. I was merely stating that I have no issue with Kommando making public his politics as long as long as it doesn't get offensive.

    You do bring up an opportunity for us to research national socialism from the beginning through its different evolution stages.

    Splitting hairs, PzJgr, I don't think people here mean NSism à la Gregor Strasser but stranger things have been seen before, like the sun rising in the West.
