Well it isn't a natural tendency with everyone, as this thread demonstrates. I'm not going to judge a seven-year-old even if it was a genuine Nazi salute, which it wasn't. The incident does say at least something about the family mindset at the time; though Hitler had still to do his dirtiest deeds, he was already a known megalomaniac who had patently not learned the lessons of the past, and there was undeniable support for him within the royal family and little inclination, it seems, to keep it private. However, there's a lot more to this unprincipled and not especially intelligent breed than that, as I outlined in my posts of 19 July, 7.02 pm and 20 July, 1.31pm. They are well worthy of disdain, but on far wider issues then their alleged support, once upon a time, for Hitler.
