Always love to hear the deep lore. Lemmy’s early development makes a lot more sense now. Good on them(you) to leave everything open and learn from Reddit’s mistakes.

Still, free and open has a limit. No Facebook and no Nazis. That’s just common sense everyone used to have.

    What happens is the definition of nazi changes to incorporate anyone who disagrees with you.

    Any form of ultranationalist is a nazi. Any questions?

    So you admit that Antifa are as Nazis like Maga are? Or are rightoids worse for some arbitrary reason again?

    You could call them an authoritarian paramilitary group, but they're not nazis. That doesn't automatically make them good, it's just that nazism is a specific political ideology.

    Half of them are anarchists, calling them authoritarian is a grandpa’s facebook-tier understanding of the situation

    I've yet to meet an anarchist following anything like a coherent ideology in that respect. They all seem very eager to impose themselves on others. I suppose one guy took a more academic position, but still seemed to idolise violence. Maybe the authority is decentralised, but frequently wielded as explicit force. Not far from libertarianism in that regard. Doesn't appeal.

    What is your solution to prevent nazi rallies?

    Cluster munitions, for all I care. What's that got to do with anything? I was explaining my use of the word authoritarian. I'd make them illegal, if I were in a position to do so. But my place in society is installing irrigation and water management systems, I have to focus on that.

    Stopping nazi rallies is the main thing antifa does. You seem to oppose them doing it.

    I’d make them illegal, if I were in a position to do so

    But you’re not. None of us are. So that leaves what other options?

    When I asked that I ended up with more than -100 and comments like "oh so you defend them".

    "I like waffles."

    "Oh, so you hate pancakes!"

    Yes, in fact I'm calling for the centrally-organised, systematic eradication of pancakes from the breakfast menu. That's what I mean when I say I like waffles.
