Since apparently I can't post in the other topic anymore, which is weird, here.

Right on Mr. Better-Than-Everyone, sounds like you could save yourself a lot of time if you stuck to your feelings.

The feeling is mutual.

Njord loves Nazis. Nazi-Njord will be his new name.

I don't like Nazis. I don't approve of what they did in the past, nor their ideals in the present. I'm just partial to people treating other people with respect, even if I don't agree with them.

And which policies would those be? Laws exist to prohibit violence, certainly, but not to prohibit policies from being put in place that erode or erase the rights of certain groups. Heck, Trump got elected after suggesting that Muslims should be registered to prevent Islamic terror attacks (which, fortunately, did not translate into actual policy).

The Nazi party did not start out by murdering Jews in the streets. They started by appealing to people who just wanted to Make Germany Great Again and pointing fingers at scapegoats. They didn't actually start hurting those scapegoats until they were in power and had convinced enough other people to be mad at them to not mind, by which point there were no longer laws or policies to prevent them from doing so.

Letting Nazis (and their ilk) speak unopposed is dangerous. Let them speak, sure, but make sure to tell them and everyone else in earshot what garbage they are for saying such things. Staying silent only gives them more power.

Antisemitic laws. Laws against the collecting, culling, and wholesale-slaughter of people based on their ethnicity.

I'm sure anyone born in the last couple decades knows what Nazis are like. You don't need to tell them anything.

This is such a Zeus thing to say

But not.

Also, this is weird, but I'm suddenly not able to see some posts and I can't find this topic in the list. Only by looking up my posts.
