It's a little absurd to ragequit a discussion about free speech for racist extremists when someone mentions... racist extremists.

I think I'm in the right country, because as an aware, conscious person, I can act against oppression in a place where it needs to be struggled against. One day, the United States will also outlaw Nazism, and that will be a great victory for humanity.

The US never will because of the 1st Amendment. All I can say is that your understanding of human nature and agency needs some work. You turn people by interacting with them not shaming them. Basic lesson about human nature. We're lucky some people understood that 200+ years ago. It's carried us further than many of us appreciate.
