Eh, I don't have any sympathy but this isn't a standard we should set in society.

Publicly shaming neo nazis is a pretty reasonable standard.


Not really.

You are punishing them for thoughts, and thoughts they may have been indoctrinated into or thoughts that stem from a real or sane emotion.

I think the aim should be to correct people with warped or hateful opinions and you simply don't do that by shaming them and making them pariahs, you do that by engaging them.

I think, pragmatically speaking, public shaming is a horrible and ineffective way to improve society.


In this case I don't know why they'd walk around a public rally doing Nazi salutes and holding Nazi flags if they didn't want people to know about them being Nazi's.


I guess I'm jumping ahead and saying it's not necessarily bad that what they are doing is now public, just like if that turns into people getting fired or worse than we have a problem.

Let's let their employers decide that.


Yeah...

It bothers me that there could be a scenario where somebody is unable to find any means of living whatsoever due to their thoughts or words.

I think food and shelter is a human right and so how things could worst case scenario play out is worrysome but I'm not sure if there's a better more fair way.
