> You can support the right to be a Nazi while strongly criticising it.

You have the luxury of never having seen your country and culture being taken over by Nazis. Never living with the regret of being tolerant of Nazis. I have. It sucks.

It's so easy to talk in platitudes like this when you know your own life won't be affected in any way. How about supporting the right of QAnon adherents to spread their poisonous propaganda? What about when you see it's support growing rapidly? Would you still support it if it looked like you might be living in a society where the majority are QAnoners?

I know the answer to that question. And so do you.

It's easy to talk in platitudes that Nazis' free speech should be silenced when you've never lived somewhere with no free speech or been accused of being a Nazi.

Glad to see people probably over 100 are participating in hacker news.

Unless you grew up in Weimar Germany, you have never seen your country taken over by Nazis

I'll have to cast doubt on you living in a country occupied by the Nazis. Where and when are you talking about?
