Now, anyone saying that ethics don't matter in translation May 17, 2012

I wonder if they'd uphold their claim if they were faced with this translation job...

I suppose that those who are now translating this manifesto into Russian don't have any ethics problems for one simple reason: they are neo-nazi themselves. Unfortunately there are lots of them in modern Russia...

The song is in German but all the photos are from Russia. I know it for sure.

I am aware. I was just taking a hit at an old forum discussion here, where several translators claimed that their job was to translate, not to think about ethical matters surrounding the job.
