"There is a tradition in many newsgroups and other Internet discussion forums that once such a comparison is made, the 
thread is finished and whoever mentioned the Nazis has automatically "lost" whatever debate was in progress. This 
principle is itself frequently referred to as Godwin's Law. Thus Godwin's Law serves also to impose an upper bound on 
thread length in general."
