"if you don't censor people, you're a nazi!!!!!"

If you think it stops there, or even achieves that goal, you haven't been using Twitter much I guess.

No one believes that banning Nazis from Twitter is going to magically make them go away, but it does remove a platform for them, or at least hinder their ability to use it.

I don't know, but I remember when hating Nazi's was as American as apple pie or baseball.

Call of Duty, Wolfenstein, Battlefield 1942 if I recall correctly; were all anti-Nazi and it was basically it's own genre of first person shooters.

Then everything moved towards terrorism related themes (Counterstrike starting that I'm guessing)... then political correctness just referred to it as "Opposing Force (OpFor)".

Weird times we live in.
