Reading Z's posts with phrases like "We are the best country in the world, bare none" or "Let's invade Saudi Arabia" (and take over the world?) reminds me of the darkest chapter of our history. This sort of thinking allowed the Nazi's to seize power in Germany and encouraged them in their "world domination" plans.

I'd say its acting like the old 18th and 19th century imperial powers not like the Nazis. The Nazis had death camps and also invaded large advanced countries. Of course comparing Z's ideas to those of the old European empires is not exactly a ringing endorsement of them, I just think comparisons to the Nazis should be saved for people or ideas that are actually like those of Nazi Germany.
