This isn't just a right-leaning political group, these are neo-nazis, complete with the salute, the swastikas, the whole nine yards.
Why would anyone want to go to bat for them? We fought a war against this ideology. We've seen where it goes.
Edit: and don’t worry about yours either. They'll be fixed as long as enough decent people visit this thread :-)
In the US, it's not illegal to be a hateful, closed-minded asshole. The rest of us might shun you, but you shouldn't go to prison for it.
Wrongthink like the recent google memo. Should go to prison: no
Being generally annoying. Should go to prison: no
Conspiracy to genocide. Should go to prison: yes
No. Actively planning genocide is conspiracy to genocide. Glorifying national socialism is wrong-headed, stupid, morally bankrupt, and flat-out evil, but it's not yet conspiracy to genocide.
When you're glorifying and trying to restart a regime that has killed a few million people and only didn't kill more people necause they failed that is veeery close IMO.
but not because I don’t think it would be useful here but because it would be abused left and right.
(For practical examples just look at how "hate speech" is thrown around to silence people who never argumented for hate.)
Not everything has been very enlightened on either side, sadly.
Haven't really seen activity like that in other threads unless they are bringing in a lot of out-of-site new users. But this low volume thread apparently has a queue of users ready to knock down people responding to an inquiry about what Daily Stormer is..
Lets hope the mods can take a look at it and remove their downvote privilege.
threads unless they are bringing in a lot of out-of-site new users.
Not sure if I understood you but new users cannot downvote.
Huh. No you didnt misunderstand me I think I was just mistaken in what new users could do. Is there a known age threshold when voting kicks in?
Before undown was available my plan was to create a new sockpuppet every time my last one crossed 500.
That way I wouldn't have to worry about accidentally downvoting anyone.
The scary thing about this is there are a number of old matured accounts in good standing that seems to be defending nazis.
It might just be people with stronger/different principles than me though.
