No one here would call you or SJackson fascist. It’s not as if you’re banned from showing it, but, because of the offensive original nature and purpose of it, you should be discreet enough to show it only with some explanation as to historical context. Just a matter of civil sensibility, NOT government censorship.

I think my next post answers your objection, but I'd suggest the game was an accurate representation of the direction of German culture and particularly German politics at the time.

I've been called a fascist here many times, more directly a Nazi, and a communist. No big deal. Been called worse elsewhere.

I would suggest a ban on posting t things like the Juden Raus game, Germany, 1936, think of the time, is to deny the nature of the genocidal culture which spawned it.

Think about what you're saying, three years into the Reich, Dachau needs painting in a year or two, Jews are panicked to get out of Germany to everywhere, mostly to western Europe, or the east, which was a better shot, but still likely only a few more years. And Cripplecreek and I shouldn't post references to the legacy of fascist games.

Child stuff, but stupid kid stuff, worthy of criticism.

I wanted to see what the board game looked like.

I've read quite a lot of history especially 20th century and had never heard of the game.

It is vile - I'll say. I'll also say ‘ Thank you ‘ to Cripplecreek for the bit of historic information.
