Working on this Bayeux paper has taken me in directions I never thought I'd go, academically. I know all about the Nazis now. I've studied the Ahnenerbe.

But that was kind of their point with the BT thing... Vikings were Germanic and awesome and Aryan, and they took over northern France and became the Normans, who then took over England and killed off the inferior Anglo Saxons, so really the English as they exist today are really Vikings and therefore worthy of being incorporated into the Volksland or the fatherland or whatever wet dream eutopia the Nazis had. So, you're a Nazi and I'm supposed to be one? Whatever, let's go conquer some people (I'm eyeing the music department, as they are inferior to us in the most literal way.)

Did you know that Himmler had a Circle of Friends? It was like a happy-sunshineytimes-Nazi book club. They liked to talk about the BT and how awesome it was.

Would this mean, then, that the BT invokes Godwin's Law just by existing?

Can you work Godwin's Law into your paper? I would love you forever. Not that I don't already, but...

I'm invoking 4chan as a legitimate audience with an iconography of their own, so why the hell not? This would probably be the place to do it.
