This thread is a slap in the face against uniting against unity.
Disunify at once.

But, you also get to share that date with Joan Baez. That more than balances it out, dontcha think?

With all the luminaries of history, I had to get the same birth date as Richard M. Nixon.

The story says that she was "conceived", in Swastika. Was she born there?

I have a niece - a perfectly lovely person - who shares Hitler's birthday. I've never dared broach the subject to her! (And yes. I am aware of the myriads of other people who were or will be born on that same date.)

Sir, it is precisely my contention. I have studied under Brabazon Plank of Addiscombe-on-Esk and Doctor Gratiano of Bologna.
Both of these fine gentlemen will concurr with myself when I say that unity is not the same thing as conformity. It is entirely possible to be united yet not entirely conform.

Unity Mitford's story is a strange one. I remember reading about it in Jessica Mitford's autobiography. How odd that she, a British subject, should be born in a town named Swastika, be named "Unity Valkyrie", and become an ardent fan of Hitler and the Nazis! Such symbolism argues more than just the laws of chance...it suggests a spiritual synchronicity which draws like to like and shapes people and events. If, by some turn of destiny, England had chosen to ally itself with the Nazis in the 30's and 40's, then Unity would clearly have gone on to a glorious career. That, however, was not in the cards. Instead, she was indirectly destroyed by the war between England and Germany.

Unity Mitford was probably worth uniting against.

Are you implying that my understanding of the English language is exceeded by your own? I studied in Zurich under Doktor Von Glott.

Look up unity in a dictionary and then conformity. They are not quite the same thing.

What is Unity, if not conformity? Conformity is bad. We must all swear to Unite in the struggle against Unity/Conformity. By uniting against Unitry we can prevent the further rise of conformity and guarantee a society where everyone can be unique and not trapped in a sheeplike behavior pattern. The time is now. Not later. Now. Unite against Unity.
