My guess is we have a lot here.

Name at least one. I've yet to see an actual nazi on this website.

It's because we've expanded the meaning of the word from someone who supports the ideologies and practices of the National Socialist German Worker's Party, to anyone who disagrees with the liberals about anything ever.

I'm German. That's a start.

They seem obsessed because they ran out of -isms to complain about other political side and hit the wall with nazism.

Nazi's and trolls are a protected minority on the forums. If you call them a troll or a nazi for acting as one... you get the ban instead of them.

Which reinforces the projection game that nazis like to play. They spend much time accusing other minorities of being a protected class.

I answer your question with another question.

Why was fear of nazism replaced with fear of communism/socialism in the 1960s and 1970s?

The answer to that is control, which is the same answer to your question. Who is being controlled? Who is controlling? Those are questions I can't answer.

To be fair, most nazitrolls were so lazy they decided that anyone that disagreed with them is designated a social justice warrior.

Would you prefer if we called them white nationalists?

Because the maturity of political discourse in the US is the lowest it's been.

You do realize that the people being talked about actually do Roman salutes and wear swastikas, right?

[Jinpachi]

Because they're stupid and make poor life decisions.

What you think Nazis are all screaming smell like urine and have funny mustaches. That’s a cartoon real Nazis are those equally as dedicated to white supremacy as some Klansman. They don’t all froth at the mouth and drop racist language if it can gain them a little more serious attention for very old but in their minds new ideas. Or at least that’s how it’s sold.

As for naming any I’m sure if I did there’s just as many all over here that would infract me for it.

Because at the end of the day people don’t want to believe the truth about themselves much less someone they are cool with.

It’s the only reason this topic is brought up as much as it is by the same people.

Nah, you didn't. My post still stands.

Anyone folks don't agree with must be a Nazi.

How to handwave and political discussion with lame memes.

Or how about anyone I disagree with is a communist member of antifa who hate Americans and are terrorist.
