Always love to hear the deep lore. Lemmy’s early development makes a lot more sense now. Good on them(you) to leave everything open and learn from Reddit’s mistakes.

Still, free and open has a limit. No Facebook and no Nazis. That’s just common sense everyone used to have.

The paradox of tolerance is real, and a particularly thorny issue for social networks.

Philosophies that promote intolerance can not be tolerated by tolerant communities.

What happens is the definition of nazi changes to incorporate anyone who disagrees with you.

I have this theory that people who complain about everyone being called nazis, have themselves been called a nazi.

Why do people call you a nazi, hmm?

That’s literally never happened, so I can’t answer. I’m basically a Marxist, though I’m not especially attached to that as an identity.

Any form of ultranationalist is a nazi. Any questions?

So you admit that Antifa are as Nazis like Maga are? Or are rightoids worse for some arbitrary reason again?

What a pointless question though. Obviously in the context ‘Nazi’ means what it means NOW.

‘Peadophiles should be locked up’ ‘ah but what if the definition of Peadophile changes to incorporate anyone who has sex??’

When I asked that I ended up with more than -100 and comments like “oh so you defend them”.

“I like waffles.”

“Oh, so you hate pancakes!”

Yes, it didn’t take long for somebody to accuse me of being a literal nazi. Those are odd people, though. Don’t tend to meet them in the real world, only on the internet.
