      Calling anyone living today a Nazi is wrong to begin with.

      I appreciate that you started off your post with the stupidest possible thing you could say so that everybody knows they don’t need to waste time reading the rest.

        You might want to look up the term neo-Nazi and learn why there is a distinction between it and the term Nazi. Your display of ignorance is indicative of that you really should read my “post” (it’s a comment) in its entirety.

              I don’t dehumanize anybody. I just correctly recognize the threat that bigotry poses to society, especially if allowed to grow and gain power. That threat is very much human and we can never allow ourselves to forget that. Evil tends to be very banal.

                I don’t dehumanize anybody.

                In this thread you seem to be, because I’m the only party criticizing it. And if you had read what I wrote that should be pretty clear to you.

                I just correctly recognize the threat that bigotry poses to society, especially if allowed to grow and gain power.

                Not in this thread. Maybe you generally do, but I don’t see any shred of elaboration on that here.

                That threat is very much human and we can never allow ourselves to forget that.

                Like dehumanizing is a very (negative) human trait. Which I layed out and critisized in detail in my comment you opted not to read after the first line.

                Evil tends to be very banal.

                As in “Nazis are not humans” or “violence against Nazis is OK”? Spoiler alert: That’s dehumanization in action. And that’s what I’m criticizing.

                    Consider that you might be in the wrong, then.

                    Silly me, I forgot that truth and well refined and argued morals require majorities. Wait a second, that means the Nazis were right after all, because they were the elected majority from 1933 and onwards. Turkey was also right when they committed the Armenian genocide. This changes everything! Talking to you is so enlightening! Not.

                    I elaborated on the dangers here.

                    As I said: Not in this thread.

                    Yes.

                    I’ll file your vile morals under youthful ignorance. I wish you could hear what you say through my ears. I hope that you refine and revise your morals over time and, maybe, in ten years or so, look back at what you’ve written and cringe.

      Good job using the bullshit “Nazis are socialists” lie, that way it’s easy to ignore you.

        I never said that the Nazis were socialists (as we would define socialist today). I said “social” was part of their name (NSDAP, S ⟶ Sozialistisch) and not just a hollow word at that, which is a historic fact, whether you like it or not.

        If your take from what I wrote is “Nazis are socialists”, you should improve on your reading skills.
