Woozle HypertwinAcid test for any social network or fedi instance:
If you say "fuck you" to a Nazi, who gets banned?
Andreas K@woozle That depends upon the context.
If the Nazi was quiet and minding his business, and you started hurling abuse at him?
If the Nazi is in a lively discussion with you? And you end the discussion with “F%ck you”?
If the Nazi is abusing you and comment “f%ck you” before blocking him?
Jokingly, my Stalinist self strongly dislikes Nazis, but they are humans as such.
Toots are by default 500 characters long, but that's still often not enough context to assess the situation.
(And yes, a good day is if people complain about me being a Stalinist lefty and a Nazi righty, then I know that I'm nicely centred)
And you can take my comment above “lively discussion with a Nazi” with a grain of salt, many Nazis tend not to accept the right to live of the others in their core beliefs. Hence, there is not much left to discuss with them.
@yacc143 I think that's kinda definitional to Naziism, no? (See my response to your previous comment.)
Thing is, "Nazi" is definitionally "someone who advocates hurting other people for no good reason".
I don't see how more context is needed.
