be nice, stay safe yall
in the context of the gab situation, legality is irrelevant
If you don't have ANYWHERE to address the issues of Nazism, they fester and grow
@Vigil a good place to address the issues of nazism is the battlefield
they tend to respond well to weaponry
You can talk about why Nazism is bad but not that I identity as Nazi
You can have a discussion about Nazism and that should be done
Context matters I agree with that
The issue is that it's not a case of "this is a platform that supports nazis", that's more a smear. I hate nazis too, they're fucking appalling. But if we attack and oppress them they'll twist to think they're right, that there's a Jew-run far-left establishment wanting to hunt them down, and they'll get more secure in their views
When I meant Nazi I meant identifying as one
@Vigil that's a load of crap, oppressing nazis works
It's more an issue of "Should a business be responsible for its users' actions" and "Should we ban freedom of speech and override a private entity's rights to self-govern"
Oppressing *anyone* doesn't work, any oppressed group wants to rebel
We can detain them and give them a second chance
lmao, did you miss the part where the allies oppressed the shit out of nazis to win the war? they have to be fought
That's war
This is an individual
Well yes, that's a case of a fascist genocidal invasion of mainland Europe
war contains individuals fighting for certain ideas
Ideologies will never ceases to exist
We must always be vigilant
You can't opress someone to not think of it
Why neo-nazis exist today?
because nobody's fighting them lol
There will always be nazis
You can't defeat an ideology
in general, maybe? but probably a pretty small amount depending on the society
It will always exist
Yes that's why there a few Nazis in this day and age
>few
>fascists elected all over europe and the americas
Not Nazis but yeah the Brazil election is stupid
fascism is a natural endpoint of liberal society, but in a different society I doubt there would be as much of it
But the people of Brazil generally fed with the violence
The left didn't help so they went for the right
Most of them didn't even care if bolsanaro said horrible stuff
He said he will be hard on corruption
not so much that the left didn't help, more that the fascists appeal more directly to their simplistic ideas about the world
People want a strong leader in times of chaos
exactly, in a society with less chaos, fascism would be less likely
