To me a wholesale ban on a religion, whose practitioners vary wildly seems like a completely different thing.
Holocaust denial is pretty specific in comparison.

The more I investigate "where to draw the line", the more I'm convinced we aren't capable of doing so in a just fashion.
There's certainly precedent for holocaust denial being considered specifically and uniquely harmful, although it feels a little dated in the year 2020.
As far as you question goes to some extent yes. I wouldn't want to see some sort of litmus test for groups that clearly aren't purely a hate group.
A specific christian identity group (randomly made up here) that is hateful, no problem with removing them. All Christian groups, no.
As an atheist, I do find them a hate group. Are you going to declare militant atheism intolerant, or religion?
I don't know what "militant atheism" is though.
Why wouldn't it be OK to ban a belief system that specifically discriminates against an innate feature?
There is a difference between groups with some questionable beliefs about others, and those whose groups are entirely about hating other people.
That's the thing with neonazis. They are 100% in agreement about ethnic violence. It isn't a side effect of their belief system. It is the core of their belief system that undesirable people should be murdered.
What left wing groups would you consider banning?
