Computer: Keyboard: Key
Hitler Key   (+3, -2)  [vote for, against]
make a key that delivers a complete reference to Hitler

Hitler Key is an additional feature on a computer or typewriter keyboard.

When it's pressed, an entire phrase is added to whatever text is being composed. This phrase makes a reference to Hitler in the same manner referred to by Godwin. The phrase is customisable and may be edited after typing. Instead of inverted commas, tiny swastikas are placed on either side of it to indicate and reinforce its presence.

The key comes with a range of stickers to identify it, taking the form of either a small moustache, distinctive hairstyle or entire face.

The same idea is also available as a "Trump Key"

De-Luxe version lights up, and makes the sound of "Sieg Heil" when pressed.

For [xenzag] [8th of 7, Oct 27 2020]

Magnificent. [+]

We would like to licence the technology.

This could be extended to provide keyboards for senior managers and the carbon-based entities from Marketing. The management one could automatically insert a phrase indicating a total lack of comprehension of the issues involved, and the marketing one could do the same thing but in a sneering and offensive way, instead of merely being stupid.

Awwwww ...

But no, this invention belongs to the World ...

<Aside>

Hmmm, is [xenzag] "going soft" ? Is this the real [xenzag], or an impostor ?

//Trump Key//
Redundant. We are rapidly (unfortunately...) approaching a point where the only difference is physical appearance.

Maybe one could be the Shift function of the other.
