Holocaust is a word with many associations.


I hate that people think only jews were killed in "the holocaust" and that when they hear the word they automatically associate it with hitler and nazis. Ignorant asshole.

Nobody is saying that Sloan, but the fact is that this particular group of people used that particular phrase for a specific reason, and not recognizing that is tantamount to support of that way of thinking.

"The Holocaust" v. "Holocaust"

one is unacceptable as a guild name and the other isn't.

this is an old argument.

I think it would be more a matter of capitalization and tone. THE Holocaust is the common US phrase to mean the one all the Jewish people got murdered in. Jewish Holocost, same thing. Holocaust in itself ..with a capitalization in the middle of the sentence could refer to the Jewish pew pew burn die one. "h"olocaust or a holocaust would not, at least in my mind, be considered a reference to it. However just say the word holocaust in front of any Jewish person, and they would immediately refer to THE holocaust in their brains.

Since HBB is Eli Roth...the bearjew. He would be a able to comment on Jewish thoughts on the holocaust. Also he could make another shitty Hostel sequel.
