see linked post. I believe this would count as one of the examples given in the federation policy https://lemm.ee/post/401063 :

Hexbear does encourage reading the original material instead of others people’s thoughts on them, more than any other community here.
A lot of free speech diehards would be gobsmacked if they ever really read all the defining arguments for free speech and realized that they all have railguards suggested.
Tankies are still toxic extremists that can be thrown into the same sack as Nazis and child abusers. They can all go fuck themselves for what they do and are.
The example you gave is a bit unfortunate - the word “Nazi” totally lost it’s meaning and the scope is ever increasing - it’s not more “bad/evil” nowadays. It’s like people forgot another words when disagreeing with someone. It could be you being banned as “nazi” some day and some chump will (mis)quote the paradox of tolerance in comments and pat themselves at the back for all the upvotes :D After all, nobody likes Nazis, right?
As a German I oppose the use of the word Nazi for Non-NS-fascism. Nazis are a very distinct variety of fascism with a horrible past. This is not to be diluted by throwing in “regular” fascist dictators like Mussolini in there. That guy and his cronies were some of the worst people one can imagine, but they were nothing compared to their disgusting German counterparts.
So no, I can’t agree with you that calling fascists Nazis “works perfectly well”.
I think, you wanted to say “before we worry less about semantics?” Your post -at least to me- is quite nonsensical.
Besides, what do you think I said? Because I cannot for the life of me figure out how what I said ("don’t dilute the term “Nazi” because that dilutes the horrors associated with the real Nazis as well)is supposed to have any kind of suggestion for waiting in it.
If you mean that you’d have to wait for them to commit murders to be allowed to call them Nazis, then I strongly suggest you inform yourself about how Nazi ideology and other fascist ideologies work (hint: “the good of the state” vs “the good of the race”) and how this distinction acted as facilitator of all the atrocities commited by the Nazis. So if someone follows the Nazi ideology, they can be called a Nazi. Not that hard, is it? Or was that too “brain dead” for you?
The problem is who gets to decide what’s acceptable and what isn’t? It’s fine IRL because if you say something horrible you get shunned but online you can always find people who agree with you and those people will always make their own echo chambers and isolate themselves
Only way on such a large scale is moderation but that’s a never ending battle and requires a small group of people or single person deciding what’s acceptable
True there are a lot of stupid people out there but if I were to say something horrifically racist in pretty much any company I can be fairly confident I would be told exactly where to shove it though
This is why I do not believe in free speech absolutism.
Nazi shit, pedo shit, etc. should not be tolerated and there is absolutely nothing wrong with silencing these sick fucks.
Coming from a hexbear user. lol

The word Nazi came from National Socialism, a brand of fascism. We use it to describe fascists; I think it works perfectly well.

So should we wait until the fascists start burning people before we worry more about semantics?
This is such a braindead response.

Oh shit a grammar Nazi.

Shut up, nerd
Now let’s see how they react to saying something horrible and getting shunned for it lol.
Oh wait now they’re gonna complain about Hexbear bullies. Calling it now.
If that’s how it worked we wouldn’t have fascists everywhere right now.
