Yeah, I'm not sure what's up over there where it suddenly became not ok to punch Nazis.
It used to be even mainstream media encouraged punching Nazis. Don't watch an old Blues Brothers movie if punching Nazis offends you too I guess.
One can be conservative and not be a Nazi though. It's weird how there is this vibe that you're supposed to pick a side then vehemently defend the far extremes of what other with that political bent want to do. You have otherwise regular people saying it's not okay to punch Nazis for example. Mainstream social media sucks.
The issue is that the mainline GOP doesn't want to weed the Nazis in their midst, because elections are too close to afford the loss of their votes and the sympathizer votes.
