This whole thing is disgusting. Nazis suck. So do people calling for violence or removal of rights from literally any human. Buncha Nazis in here, just against a kind of person it's ok to be horrible to.
This is actually a philosophical problem. I think it's the parable of pacifism, if I remember right? Basically, the advocacy for total pacifism and acceptance of all groups doesn't work if one group is specifically advocating for the death of the others because then there's a net loss.
So yes. No nazis. Period.
It's the paradox of tolerance and it's bullshit. Daryl Davis has converted more KKK members talking to them than anyone has with a fist.
Edit to add: killing Nazis doesn't defeat fascism. You can kill people with weapons, but words are the armaments of ideas. You want to kill an idea, it's through words.
World War 2 would like to disagree with you. Fist and guns are very effective at dealing with Nazis.
Oh snap, Nazis all died in ww2? Fuck why didn't these guys get the memo?
People died in the war. Some of them were Nazis. But NAZIS themselves did not die. You can't kill an IDEA by killing people. You kill an idea with better ideas, with kinder words, and with more compassion.
Kill all nazis. 🤷
The amount of nazi sympathizers in this thread is too damn high.
"we should have a polite chat with them as they work to genocide everyone they don't like" no thanks.
This thread IS full of a bunch of psychopaths, but it's not the ones advocating for not-violence.
By all means, if someone's already getting, or in imminent danger of becoming, violent, do what you have to to stop that. Anything else and you're a murderous psycho.
