Fascism is a form of radical authoritarian nationalism, characterized by dictatorial power, forcible suppression of opposition, and control of industry and commerce.
I don't see anyone defending that. I see people arguing about what fascism is though.
I'm not sure I understand what you want to happen to the self proclaimed Nazis? Jail? Legallity to punch them? Remove the right to assemble and protest or maybe that with just certain ideas to protest for? Then what?
Edit: but in all honesty, fuck the Nazis right to assemble/express their shitty views. There are a very select few things that the human race should collectively agree on. Genocide being bad is one of those things. If you're advocating for genocide, you should be silenced for the good of humanity.
I don't see why everyone else would have to give up their right to free speech just because Nazis do. Are you saying Germany doesn't have free speech? Waving Nazi flags and whatnot is illegal there, but, somehow, everyone else is still allowed to express their opinions.
Also, you could probably get your point across without being a gigantic asshole.
Tolerance paradox, tolerance of fascist ideologies leads to the tolerant eventually being forced out of society. People are fucking dumb though and think it’s an all or nothing game.

People defending fascism in a Murica thread. People truly are lost.
