    From the comments:

    Her wearing a swastika is trashy and all, but who’s the nazi here, really?

    Just fucking end it

    What the fuck do these fucks not understand about the paradox of tolerance?

    "I know she may want to genocide a bunch of minorities, but let's not be hasty in our judgements here! At least hear the argument first."

    "Not attacking someone simply based on their beliefs" is fine, unless said beliefs have historical context that led to the greatest lost of human life in recent history. At that point you have no goodwill left, nor do you deserve any.

    The Nazi is the victim and needs defending.

    Believe me, I don't want to be defending a Nazi.

    This motherfucker is in here roleplaying they're her hired defense attorney desperate for a job when they're just posting this because they want to.

    OH, but I'm sorry, surely there's a Nazi with a gun placed at the back of your head forcing you type this bullshit, along with 120 concerned citizens agreeing that Nazis deserve to be defended.

    Seriously, just delete reddit. It's so full of McCarthyism. So much anti china bs and racism and I'm not even a tankie

      I deleted it after this post. My brain was close to exploding reading that thread.

    I'm pleasantly surprised in the main thread all the top comments aren't defending her like this, usually publicfreakout is worse than this.

      I love when people lump in fascism with communism. Really just shows how ideologically devoid they are.

      Nazis love pretending they aren't nazis. I wonder why...

      "Portland woman wearing a swastika is confronted on her doorstep" and is getting lasers in her eye while people tell her to take it off.

    Can someone elaborate a bit on why deplatforming or criminalising Nazis is the best option? I imagine there would be some negative effects, like not knowing who the Nazis are or if there's extra appeal to an extreme ideology when it's illegal. I tend to be very pro free speech if you couldn't tell, but I'm willing to change my stance on this

      Because Nazism leads to genocide. It's not protected by freedom of speech in Germany. Guess why? They learned this lesson before.

        Yeah you're right I guess it could just be a part of hate speech laws, thanks

            if you want to clear out Nazis deplatforming is the right choice

            Putting them on a small, elevated platform, giving them some form of support (around the neck area in particular), then rapidly removing the platform is the best choice in my opinion

            Right sorry, I wasn't able to connect the dots. That makes sense, I've always thought of it as "they'll just go somewhere else" to their own echo chamber, 4chan or whatever, but we've lost a ton of active members
