You are belittling the significance of this name. The name Adolf in particular has a very negative connotation. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the point is, this is the name he chose or vh or whomever. And it just brings up awful memories. Obviously just because your name is Adolf doesn’t make you a bad person but to voluntarily choose that name when it’s associated with one of the worst humans in history and offends many who have family members or even lived through it, well just seems callous to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darthshay Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 the main problem is that he chose that name. you dont see anyone from the Entertainment industry called them self's Adolf (and VH is Entertainment). as a Jewish man living in Israel who grow up with all the story's I find this tacky and not appropriate. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squish Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 If you take the trouble to read my earlier post you will see that the Russian nation lost over three and a half times the number of soldiers and citizens in fighting Hitler than civilians murdered in the Holocaust. By all accounts therefore you would expect there to be a similar rant on this subject here from forum members related to this Nation given also that they host VH. The fact that there isn't does mean that they don't feel this terrible loss just as keenly. All men are equal aren't they? They have moved on and so perhaps so should we. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
