You don't "violate" Godwin's Law. Godwin speaks of probabilities, and in theory a "violation" would be for the thread to never mention Hitler or Nazis... In fact, this is an edge-case of Godwin, where the number of posts == 1. "As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches 1" - Mike Godwin, 1990 But, you know, since The September Which Never Ended, standards have been in decline.
