>I've been called a Nazi scum for advocating civil behavior

Assuming that this is your account, do you call this misogynic shit "civil behavior"?

You can assume that it's my twitter, but I only have this username here and on reddit.

Then again I don't see why someone can't enjoy games, anime, or 4chan memes or how consuming them disqualifies you from having political opinions or dismissing them.

Okay, so it's not your Twitter account.

Reading some of your Reddit comments is almost worse. Living in Germany, it's hard to imagine that "communists" are still the bogeyman in the US.

(Incidentally, since apparently I need to say this, I'll note that Reddit and Twitter users "gort" are not me.)

I am certainly aware of that, thank you. Here's another Wikipedia link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Historikerstreit

And I obviously don't google every nickname on HN, but he told us that people were calling him a Nazi without providing evidence. I wanted to look into that.

On your 2nd point: fair enough. I apologise for the implication.
