I don't think dressing up as Hitler is racist at all. You aren't stereotyping anybody, and you aren't making fun of a race.

It is in poor taste and totally offensive. But not racist.

Why wouldnt it offend arians?  That's their founder/main leader dude isnt it?
Thats like drawing a picture of muhammad or portraying yourself as jesus (stupid kanye west, I'd be gleeful if he dropped form the earth, not just for the jessus thing)

Drawing a picture of muhammad is an entirely different subject.

I don't think it would offend Christians if somebody dressed as Jesus, would it?

I want to dress up as Hitler and learn some German phrases for when I go out for Halloween. Who wouldn't like being yelled at in German to give someone candy?

"Gibt mir eine Geschank, Jude!" -- Roughly "Give me a gift, Jew!" 
"Ein Auto fuer die Mench; Ein Reich fuer die Mench; Ein Fuehrer fuer die Mench!!" "One car for the people; One empire for the people; One leader for the people!!"

That's all you should need to know (aside from "sieg heil!" that is.)

Should I link Yoni to that and ask if he thinks it's racist? I'm almost positive he'll say yes.

I dressed up as Jesus for superhero day and all my church friends thought it was pretty cool. :)

You might be right about that, Joe.

The only way I could agree with that is if the person accepted the beliefs Hitler held and was trying to promote them or something.  Dressing up as Hitler isn't naturally racist.

There's a difference between being racist and being offensive or being in extremely poor taste. Yoni may be offended, but that doesn't mean it's racist. Racist generally involves calling out a stereotype, such as "all muslims are terrorists" or "all black people are violent", whereas this is just dressing up as an evil person. But that's not racist!

So if some one just dresses like muhammad that can be offensive but not racist?
