Pretending they aren't gives them a pass for what they did/do today

Banality of evil and all that.

Saying that they weren't takes the agency they took in genocide away, and makes them no longer responsible for their actions. A monster only did what is natural to it, they couldn't help it, they were just following orders, they- on and on and on.

No, they were and are human.

Damned right!

At the same time, we have to remember that Nazis are human and so are their impulses, which is why we cannot let ourselves become complacent and think "Oh, this has all been sorted out, no need to worry about this stuff again~" like we did after WW2. Like any disease, Nazism and its like will need a lot of work and constant vigilance to ensure it doesn't infect anyone again. We cannot pushing for education and social reform, nor should we become complacent if/when we actually get those.

EDIT: Mind you, right now if you gotta stop a Nazi by punching them, then by all means punch them, and twice on Sundays.

Lmfao, left to its own devices Germany would've de-nazified more effectively than the U.S. did because we deliberately put nazis back into leadership positions in Germany as well as goddamned NATO.

It seems like you would want a larger radius arc to cut across instead of that steep diagonal line but I don't see why it couldn't work in theory

Nazis are human ≠ don't get rid of Nazis

You still get rid of them. You do not tolerate them, you deal with them in the strictest means you must. No one is arguing for Nazis here, or being soft with them.

As I said, they chose to do as they did. Dehumanizing them into mere monsters and boogiemen is how we ended up here. It mystifies them while cleansing them of any human agency. It allows us to hide behind our facade of civility and say "never again" while "again" creeps up behind us because we never faced the structures that led to it.

A Nazi is human, but humans can deserve a crow-bar to the face, too.

fake edit: I hate these books. They could at least spend some time trying to link known facts to their BS theories, but these are out and out lists of crazy statements with not even a wisp of evidence that at least the fake moon landing and flat earth people try to do. Apparently the Reptilians use a base-60 counting system because as well all know irrational numbers don't exist under that system and therein lies the source of great technology!

I'm not being ironic. Your response to "Nazis are bad" was "how dare you claim everyone of a category is bad". Real galaxybrain take to claim hating all Nazis is the same as hating all Jews.

My response was not "how dare you claim everyone is a category is bad," it was "having their humanity contingent on their category is bad." I did not come within a loving galaxy's length of saying "not all Nazis are bad," and you're being combative and purposefully obtuse to read it that way. Looking at any human being and deciding they are not human, i.e. don't deserve human rights, is what Nazis do. Saying not to do what Nazis do is not somehow a defense of Nazis. When you start categorizing groups of people as human or not human on the basis of anything other than "are they literally a human being," you start walking down the path that leads you to doing things like throwing people into gas chambers and you keep the company of the same ideologies you claim to hate. So gently caress off back to CSPAM with that.

"You hate Nazis? Perhaps it is YOU who is the Nazi." - A Take

Let me spell it out for you. Demonizing somebody for what they are (race, sexuality, etc.) is different that demonizing somebody for what they choose to do.

Hating blacks isn't the same as hating racists. Hating women isn't the same as hating rapists. Etc.

Nobody said "don't hate them." Stripping a human of their humanity is Nazi poo poo. Period.
