Posting a wiki article is not an argument

Well yes, it directly corrects the wrong attribution made above.

Try reading it, maybe you can connect the dots!

"I dont know the argument so I'll just post a link and force everyone else to make it for me"

"I don't want to go through the exhausting ordeal to read a full sentence comment that explains it to me already, let alone read the linked article that lays it all out, so I just answer with a one-word answer to prove my intellectual superiority."

The premise for Hitler's hatred of the Jews was that they view non Jews as cattle who exist solely to serve the Jews, and were subverting German culture to achieve this end.

I actually think about this paradox relative to the uptick in crime in major cities.

Take SF for example where crime has seemingly spiked and there's no willingness to enforce the law /prosecute offenders.

On one hand, a version of Hammurabi's Code (to cut off the hand of thieves) is probably inappropriate. On the other, we've created an environment where there's no repercussion for breaking the law.

Personally, I find myself favoring Hammurabi's approach.

I don't believe his code specifically addressed petty theft; allow me to paint with broad strokes.
