The problem with that thinking is how easy it is to call someone a Nazi (or a terrorist) to legitimize killing them.
Okay what do you call inhuman genocidal racial supremacist nonsense monsters, deep into fascism, treating a list of atrocities as a to-do while exterminating a group of people who never harmed them until the genocide started for fantasy nonsense reasons, and trying to murder the very concept of truth while they do it to cover their asses and keep the heat off of their giant concentration camp, using the justification that they 'need the space'?
They're Nazis.
Add it to the list of words that mean nothing now.
Says the Nazi.
See now there’s the problem of your use of the word. It has lost all meaning and weight.
It doesn’t bother me in the slightest to be called that by you after seeing how you use it.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
There is no such thing as being a Nazi because of pointing out other people's possible misuse or abuse of the word Nazi, just like pointing out the misuse of the word Terrorism doesn't make one a Terrorist.
I'm starting to think that you're hasbara making clearly derranged uses of the word Nazi to indirectly help Israel by diffusing the point that Zionist behaviour is the closest there is to Nazi behaviour in the modern era.
If you're not, then try and not reduce your thinking to one word slogans that you hammer into everything (like a square peg on a round hole) so as not to destroy valid arguments for yourself and others.
no but Nazis do like to accuse other people of being themselves, and live five have here. its like their favorite trick. and I'm so done being gentle about their identities. I'd like to avoid splash damage to other groups, and I think I'm reasonably careful to do that, but explain the difference between a modern Zionist (I'm aware there are historical versions of the idea that involved zero genocide, and haven't existed since before television was a thing) and Nazi in practical terms. not in their nitpicks or specific stated goals, but their effect on the world. now explain why I should care about the feelings of either group.
yeah nothing makes hezbollah seem reasonable quite like hezbarah does. they're using modern tactics to try and murder truth and fuzz everyone's decision loops.
