Murder?

I think not. Murder is a crime. And it’s bad. (crime doesn’t necessarily mean bad, see Robin Hood for more details)

Nazis don’t count, all you’re doing is cleaning up the trash.

You can’t murder a nazi. You can certainly kill them though.

It’s an important distinction, in my opinion.

Why can i not murder a nazi? A murder is the deliberate ending of someone’s life. Why is that not applicable to Nazis?

Justifying the murder of someone by dehumanizing them is exactly what the nazis did. They may be terrible people who need to be fought against and whose ideology needs to be stopped, but it’s never good to start dehumanizing groups of people over any criteria.
