Isn't this all a little besides the point since Remembrance Day is about the end of the first World War and not the second? I'm all for killing giant robot Hitlers, but I think the point has been thoroughly missed on either side of the argument.

Technically it's about every war in which lives were lost specifically 'since' the first world war.
I never got why that was. Did people not die before 1914, or do we just not care?
After a hundred years it officially becomes 'history' and we don't need to give a fuck any more.

For example

Nazi Empire: Evil military psychos known for gassing people. Very bad.

Roman Empire: Evil military psychos known for feeding people to lions. Very cool.
So, wait, in 40-odd years we won't have to care about WW2 anymore?

Awesome.
No. In 40 years time it'll be perfectly acceptable to collect 'nazi relics' and dress up as a nazi stormtrooper at kid's birthday parties.
You mean it isn't acceptable already?

Aww shit....
No, Prince Charles or whatever his name is got in deep doo doo over in Britain for goind to a costume party as a Nazi.

If you really wanna Cosplay Nazi's without getting in trouble. Do some Warhammer 40k Cosplay. Imperial Commisar anyone?
I remember that story. Soooo silly. We just have to wait for the last WW2 vet to die off before we can go dressing up as Nazis I guess. I don't see why it's all right to have a game centred about them but it's suddenly morally corrupt to dress up like one.
