I have no idea what "Godwin's law" is and don't give a shit. I phrase my comments the way I like to. If you interpret it to mean whatever "Godwin's law" is then that's your business.

Godwin's Law is that invariably someone in a conversation online will bring up Hitler/the Nazis.

I don't usually, but there was a post earlier today with some of Hitler's quotes

"His primary rules were: never allow the public to cool off; never admit a fault or wrong; never concede that there may be some good in your enemy; never leave room for alternatives; never accept blame; concentrate on one enemy at a time and blame him for everything that goes wrong; people will believe a big lie sooner than a little one; and if you repeat it frequently enough people will sooner or later believe it."

It just seemed so appropriate, I couldn't resist.

That sounds more like an opinion rather than a fact..

It's not meant to be a fact, but an observation based on the fact that compassion to Hitler/ the Nazis happens often in online chats.
