it's always a pleasure when good and obvious sarcasm goes to waste ....
Are Slayer nazi? I don't think so. I think their imagery is in bad taste, but I don't think it makes them nazi. Ultimately it does come down to personal interpretation, especially when so many racists today dont have the courage to make their convictions known. They'd rather make snide comments and drop hints, skirting the rules of the system to avoid being exposed.
There is a huge difference between Slayer and Mayhem. Slayer never said stuff like "black metal is for white people", which Hellhammer famously said in "Lords Of Chaos". Nor have Slayer openly sympathised with political Nazi groups like the Norwegian Heathen Front - thanks again go to Hellhammer for that choice piece of wisdom.
Whats "politically correct" anyway? Because if NOT being politically correct means sitting on the fence, not giving a shit about anyone else's problems as long as I have beer and joints and I'm not getting picked on, then I am definitely politically correct and PROUD of it. From my experience, the only people who whinge about P.C are bigots (admitted or otherwise) who find that their favorite pastime has just been declared morally reprehensible.
If my anti-nazi offends you, I make no apologies for it.
"First they came for the communists, but I didn't speak up because I wasn't a communist.
Then then came for the Jews, but I didnt speak up because I wasn't a Jew.
Then they came for the trade unionists, but I didn't speak up because I wasn't a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Catholics, but I didn't speak up because I was a protestant.
Then they came for me, and by that time, there was no one left to speak up".
