Oh I understand. Our perspective is in large part due to our experiences. Some have experienced far more of the world than others but they still use the same phrases to describe their feelings even if the events they're comparing their issues to are radically different. I can get impatient with these sort of things though but hey, that's me.
One thing about calling someone a nazi though is that it's also meant to provoke. It's not like saying, "oh you're a jerk" or something like that; whether the person bandying the word about seriously means it or is just venting I'll quote Yosemite Sam, "them's fightin' words!"
