      It’s the internet, there’s Nazis everywhere. I got to see how they work (on the internet) because they converted a long time acquaintance of mine. I’m going to start working on some mod tools to help shut their bullshit down once work stops being a shitnado.

        Sorry to hear about your acquaintance. Fuck nazi and thank you we need people to make sure we keep them the fuck out. Fuck nazi and I believe it’s only time punching someone wouldn’t be considered violent since to me a nazi isn’t a person our worth being considered human. But fucking monsters.

          Fyi: Dehumanizing humans was a core feature of the Nazi ideology.

            There’s a difference between “I don’t respect this person’s humanity” based on traits they were born with versus active choices and decisions that person has made. I would define one of the core human traits as care and empathy for others, and I don’t think Nazis demonstrate that trait

              They don’t. Neither do most CEO and all billionaires. They have no empathy and in some cases enjoy causing suffering. Especially on those they deem lesser than themselves.

              To me that makes them not human. But nazis are whole other beast and I think it perfectly fine to shoot them into the sun.

                I think it’s important to remember that these monsters are all too human.

                It’s still good to shoot them into the Sun.

                  Yes it’s important to remember that humans are simple flawed creatures. Whether you are religious or not that should be everyone’s basic understanding. And while it’s important to remember that that doesn’t justify the behavior. It doesn’t make them any less human either.

                  We just need to remember the paradox of tolerance.

                I’m not going to join your ride on the slippery slope of dehumanization. You need to get to grips with the reallity that your rosy fiction of what humans should be is not what humans are. Your jump to dehumanization is a perfect illustration of a not so nice human trait that enabled some of the most horrible episodes of human history. Be better than that.

                  Are we dicussing the same thing here? I am talking about Nazis and no one except for nazis should disagree with me on how they should be treated and dealt with. Thank you very much. I don’t care if I hurt thier fucking fee fees. Fuck Nazis and only good one is a dead one. Punch a nazi in the face.

                    No we, are not. Because you use Nazi colloquially as a slur for people right of you who you don’t agree with. I use Nazi correctly to refer to NSDAP members. As you want Nazis dead, I can reassure you, because 99.999% are. The literal hand full of Nazis still living is 97+ years old.

                    It should be abundently clear from what I wrote, that I’m critizing dehumanizing generally and without exception.

                    Fuck █████ and only good one is a dead one. Punch a █████ in the face.

                    Fill in the blanks randomly and see what’s wrong with it. My point is, it’s always wrong. I’m not defending Nazi-ideology or neo-Nazis (I am very opposed to both), I’m critisizing you and others for participating in dehumanization. And I’m pointing out, that your way of talking about them is ironic (and tragic), because dehumanization was a core part of Nazi ideology and strategy.

                    Fyi: My quote of you with the blanks would be considered a call for violence and Volksverhetzung (hard to translate, but “incitement of the people” comes closest) in Germany. There just was a public case where leftists were convicted because their extreme words were followed by extreme actions.

                    And I’d really like to know, what you think the implementation of “Fuck Nazis and only good one is a dead one” could, would, or should be!? Hunt them down like animals? Just every citizen shooting them on sight? Putting them in concentration camps and create some Endlösung (final solution ⟶ gas chamber)?

                  I think it’s important to remember they’re human because it reminds me that the problem isn’t really the individual people, the problem is the material structure that created them. You can’t just fix society by getting rid of the baddies, we need to tackle the systems that are turning people into Nazis.

                  That said? We are limited by our material conditions. I think it’s better to put Nazis through deradicalization programs instead of The Alternative, but I won’t idealistically insist on expensive and difficult deradicalization when they need to be stopped immediately.

                  Nazis believe it’s okay to hurt certain people. I believe it’s okay to fuck up Nazis. Thus, Nazis and I agree it’s okay to hurt Nazis.

              I don’t think Nazis demonstrate that trait Actually they did. Calling anyone living today a Nazi is wrong to begin with. Nazi was the nickname for NSDAP members. The S there is for Sozialistisch (social) and was not just a hollow word in their name. They did alot for unemployed people and massively increased social welfare programs (though, obviously, not everyone profited from that). People seem to forget, that the Nazis were legally elected in 1933; And that was not because everyone hated Jews (many did, though). They were humans, and they were idealists. Despicible horrid ideals, but still. And they used those ideals to rationalize dehumanizing others. Your thought process, even if your ideals are opposing, is not that unsimilar to theirs. People like to reduce their motives to racial bias, which is wrong. They incorporated race theory (originating from the USA, btw) but the antisemitism was the intensification and aggravation of a deeply rooted and centuries old Christian antisemitism and thus very much cultural and political and not based on traits people were born with. But hey, if you think dehumanizing groups of humans is fine if it is done for the right reasons, be my guest. After all, everybody does it: Russians dehumanizing Ukranians and the other way around, back in the day the Nazis dehumanizing Jews, American farmers the black people, Turkey the Kurds, …, and you everyone who’s right of you and who you label a Nazi. What you all have in commen is, that you think you’re doing it for the right reasons.

          Nazis were a political movement and party in WW2 Germany. The people who hate black people and Jews these days do not align at all with that party. There’s actual terms like Neonazi which is rare as well, or White Supremacist. The problem with using Nazi to define anybody currently is that in most online spaces a Nazi is not somebody who wants to exterminate the Jews and create a white world, but somebody you just disagree with and think is mean.

            I will never tire of people who do not grasp linguistics trying to be pedantic about words.

            In a living language, words mean whatever people currently use them to mean. This is how “literally” literally doesn’t mean “literally” anymore. Most people use Nazi to refer to both 1930s German National Socialists and modern day white supremacists. Therefore, that’s what it means. English is not a dead language like Latin, so stop trying to treat it like one with regards to this one word. It just makes you look like a Nazi.

              And pro-Trump Republicans are neither of those things. There may be some white supremacists in their club but by no means is it a requirement. All I see from them is delusions and shitposting.

                The entire republican party is currently lockstep saying all trans folk are trying to corrupt, if not molest, children. They’re promising national legislation to oppress and punish them if they win. Before them, it was Mexicans and Muslims. They always have a group of “others” to scapegoat, and given enough time and power they always eventually act on it.

                “Never again” means we’re supposed to recognize and stop this behavior before it can harm anybody, not wait until it’s too late as we disingenuously quibble over definitions.

              More likely neo-Nazis than actual Nazis if not pure edge lords. I think the best way to refer to them is untermensch because the actual Nazis would have seen them as lesser which I find hilarious and should insult them thoroughly. They deserve mockery and derision.

            They were a political party and movement in world war II Germany based upon politics and cultural norms of the United States. We got the OG Nazis. Yes they weren’t named Nazis.
