I have this theory that people who complain about everyone being called nazis, have themselves been called a nazi.
Why do people call you a nazi, hmm?
That's literally never happened, so I can't answer. I'm basically a Marxist, though I'm not especially attached to that as an identity.
Maybe don't parrot nazi talking points then
I'm also a vegetarian, does that make me Hitler? Temper your hysteria.
I've made you aware that claiming the word "nazi" doesn't mean anything anymore is a thing nazis do.
Do with that what you will.
I'm going to the gym!
Cheers!
The word "Nazi" and especially "fascist" have been diluted into "bigot" at best and "person I disagree with" at worst. The right are just as bad with "communist" and "socialist", although with the difference that socialism is a perfectly decent ideology, and even communism isn't as bad as fascism.
