    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.

              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.

              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.

              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.
