Really? He told you this? Looks like you are just making up more crap to support your paranoid dellusions.
> How many real people do you know that are like that?>
Like what? Like how Spielberg portrayed the Nazis our how you imagine he portrayed the Nazis? There is a pretty huge disconnect between the two. Either way I must confess, I don't know many people who would proactively participate in the killing of 6 million people based on their heritage.
> Probably nobody. Hence, there are no Nazis. That's one point.>
A silly point at that. I don't know anyone as sociopathic as Hitler. Does that mean I should believe Hitler never existed? Your logic is nothing short of bizzarre.
> The second point is that the movie dehumanizes the enemy.>
Not the Schindler's list I saw.
> Forget the ideology. How does Schindler's List differ from the dehumanization of Jews in Der Ewige Jude?
Why would you hold Spielberg to different standard than that of the director of Der Ewige Jude? And isn't that to short-sell Spielberg?.>
didn't see Der Ewge Jude. I don't cut Spielberg any special slack. I think your opinions of schindler's list is more about your baggage than Spielberg's film.
> Cinema is propaganda.>
If you are paranoid.
