Re: Brexit Development(s) Discussion
However silly the chart thing is Ode to Joy is a really famous piece of music which no one really associates strongly with Hitler. It's used all the time for everything and Hitler was no doubt tapping into that as well. It's very tenuous to suggest playing Ode to Joy on Holocaust Memorial Week is somehow insensitive. Hitler also liked Bavarian Beer Halls but they don't close on Holocaust Memorial Week.
Ode to Joy is also used in Peggle when you clear all the pins, I don't think they used it in a sick celebration of Hitler either.
Just call it for what it is, a juvenile and impotent stunt. Not much need to drag the Holocaust into it.
