    Wow. Neat pro-nazi talking points. Do you think this is a good look for the moderation team?

    I’d say the German Communist Party didn’t know any better and learned the hard way what happens when you welcome nazis. It’s interesting how none of your examples are from after 1932. I wonder what could have happened in 1933 that caused the sudden cutoff.

      Neat pro-nazi talking points.

      How is that pro-nazi? My personal ideology is essentially in opposition to Nazi ideology in every possible matter.

      Not what I asked. You said marching with Nazis automatically makes you a Nazi, regardless of if they kill you later or not. So were they Nazis or not.

      It’s interesting how none of your examples are from after 1932.

      Interesting how you didn’t answer, were they Nazis?

        Essentially? Wow, you can’t even pretend to oppose nazis without wormy equivocation.

        Not what I asked. You said marching with Nazis automatically makes you a Nazi, regardless of if they kill you later or not. So were they Nazis or not.

        In this day and age it is. Certainly in the context of the unite the right nazi rally it is, which is what we were talking about. I can’t fault fools who didn’t know any better. Everyone knows they’re the baddies now. Everyone at that rally knew exactly what they were about.

        Interesting how you didn’t answer, were they Nazis?

        The nazis didn’t seem to think so, since they built Dachau to kill them. But yeah, have your stupid little gotcha. You’re so clever.

          Yeah because I think even Nazis would agree with me that random murder should be a crime or at least some people should have access to clean drinking water. I assume you agree with that too.

          I can’t fault fools who didn’t know any better. Everyone knows they’re the baddies now. Everyone at that rally knew exactly what they were about.

          I think you overestimate how many people are obsessed with internet politics.

          The nazis didn’t seem to think so, since they built Dachau to kill them.

          I didn’t ask if they thought so I asked if you did.

          Also, stop being patronizing, it’s not funny it’s just rude.

            The nazis at the rally were chanting nazi slogans and carrying torches. They were not immediately removed from the rally. They were not removed at all. It was obvious to even the most casual observer that it was a nazi rally. Anyone marching in a nazi rally is a nazi. Even when Trump calls them “very fine people” and unconvincingly walks it back.

            Now go ahead and pretend that fools who didn’t know any better in the 30s are equivalent to people in 2017 who should have known better but marched with nazis anyway. You seem to be under the impression that it’s a good look.

              Most people don’t know Nazi slogans or associate torches with Nazis.

              It was obvious to even the most casual observer that it was a nazi rally.

              How can you know if those who don’t recognize it you call them Nazis and dismiss what they perceived?

              You seem to be under the impression that it’s a good look.

              I didn’t say it was a good look? It’s not like I was there.

                The chanting of “Jews will not replace us” doesn’t exactly leave room for doubt. Neither did the nazi flags.

                Keep making excuses for nazis. It’s obvious what sort of bar this is.
