People who say of Nazis “deal with bad ideas is by defeating them in the marketplace of ideas” are smuggling in the notion that Nazi ideas have not already been defeated on the merits, and are still valid and worthy to consider, or that Nazi "ideas" involve bloodless debate.

In Swahili...
"SHAGALABAGALA"
means
"CHAOS AS USUAL"
In other words, SHAGALABAGALA is the Swahili version of "SNAFU," "FUBAR," & "Same Shit, Different Day" -
And my life has just become THAT MUCH RICHER.
