    It wasn’t republicans, it was nazis. People were saying to punch nazis.

    Interesting you combined the two in your head.

      i used to say that it’s morally obligatory to punch nazis wherever one finds them. I still say that, but i used to too.

        No…. Nazis have an official definition:

        Another good description of nazism

        Here’s a good descriptive excerpt:

        It rejected liberalism, democracy, the rule of law, and human rights, stressing instead the subordination of the individual to the state and the necessity of strict obedience to leaders. It emphasized the inequality of individuals and “races” and the right of the strong to rule the weak.

        Politically, Nazism favoured rearmament, reunification of the German areas of Europe, expansion into non-German areas, and the purging of “undesirables,” especially the Jewish people.

        Not sure what your comment is about.
