In response to my appropiately wishing death to nazis, a lot of libs came out of the woodwork to insist the proper reaction to fascists seeking to genocide everyone who isn’t of white European stock is love and affection.

notch is a fucking nazi and ought to be strung up like one too.

@TheLeadenSea@sh.itjust.works saying we shouldn’t punish nazis, that would be unjust. Copied from a comment I just made elsewhere, but that applies here too: As an end goal? I don't want anyone's lives to be destroyed. I do want to prevent harm happening to people, and if people are harmful to society they should be rehabilitated, or if not possible, isolated from society to prevent further harm. However, I don't want anyone to be punished or have their life destroyed just for revenge, or because it seems 'just'. That would just cause further unnecessary harm.

@massive_bereavement@fedia.io here with some ableist nazi and transphobe apologia. Notch was (maybe still is?) an ill person, someone dealing with a lot of demons that just wanted to make little java games and turned insta-famous and insta-rich, and that seemed too much to handle. Like the Harry Potter lady or the Father Ted guy, they couldn't handle their new lives and went bananas. Nazis are just broken people that want to hurt others to numb their own pain. (Not that I'm justifying their shitiness). Then again, in Behind The Bastards, often there's a guy who has a plain happy childhood and becomes a monster, so WDIK.

@missingno@fedia.io telling us that if you kill nazis, you become the nazi. how chilling. Dehumanization is what Nazis do. Don't gaze into the abyss so long that you start thinking like them. I think it is essential to remind ourselves that Nazis are people, that Naziism is an evil that mankind is capable of. In order to effectively fight Nazis, we must pay attention to how real people get suckered in by Nazi propaganda. The second you start othering them is the second you lose the fight because you willfully stopped paying attention.

all this was supported by @BrikoX@lemmy.zip under the guise of respecting EU law. if a law tells you that killing nazis is wrong, that law is wrong and should be ignored. violence against nazis should always be advocated for.

remember kids, the only good nazi is a dead nazi. don’t defend nazis like a lib collaborator, because when you sit at a table with nazis, the only thing that’s changed is the number of nazis at the table.
