There's a logic flaw in this post and that makes me feel uncertain if this is just ragebaiting or what... It certainly feels like it, and it is kinda worrisome and sad if we let this kinda shit content drive the platform usage into senseless insult throwing (I'm kinda expecting that I'll be called a Nazi for not agreeing on what this post represents, precisely my point).
You can say "fuck Nazis" and I'd agree. Fuck them, hard with a cactus. If someone disagrees with "fuck Nazis" sure, you found the Nazi. I agree with that. If in a conversation someone is defending a Nazi ideology or some clear Nazi shit, yeah call them Nazis and anyone defending them are clearly aligned on that shit.
But then step two of the image makes no sense.
Watch for the "don't call people who disagree with you Nazis" comments.
Saying fuck Nazis is not the same as calling someone who disagrees with you a Nazi. If someone would call someone a Nazi for disagreeing on some random topic, and someone says don't call them Nazis just because they don't agree with you, that doesn't make them a Nazi. There is nuance here, what was it they disagreed with? It feels like the post is just trying to give way to the fact that if you call anyone a Nazi and they disagree that makes them even more Nazi. It the same shit as accusing someone of stealing and when they deny it you answer with "that's what a thief would say". Well yeah, but it is also what a non-thief would say. So it proofs nothing.
Can't we just agree on hating Nazis and calling a Nazi to anyone making a Nazi salute or saying Nazi shit or defending Nazi shit? Can we agree that saying "don't call people who disagree with you a nazi" doesn't immediately imply they are Nazis? It doesn't make any fucking sense, and I'd wish to see better content in Lemmy than this baity shit. Instead of this shit, post a nice image that says "fuck Nazis" with a middle finger as decoratiin, and I'm sure you will see less crap than in this post.
I may be over thinking it, but that's not what it reads like to me. Like at all.
The post doesn't say "anyone defending a Nazi" is a Nazi. Which sure, makes sense. I agree.
The post says "anyone saying that you shouldn't call a Nazi to those who disagree with you means they are by extension Nazis". That assumes that calling someone a Nazi can never be wrong if they disagree with you and you are not a Nazi. Someone that is not a Nazi can disagree with someone that is not a Nazi. The post seems to try and create discord by saying that a witch hunt against Nazis is perfectly fine because Nazis are shit. And anyone against a witch hunt of Nazis means they are a Nazi. Well, I'm against all kind of witch-hunts because they are based on accusing whoever just out of hatred with very little way of fighting against it fairly.
Or to explain my meaning in a different way. I'm against the death penalty. That means that I don't want any form of legal death penalty, even if someone is a Nazi. Does that mean now that I treat Nazis too nicely? I can see and understand that someone disagrees with me and I would disagree with someone proposing the death penalty for nazis. They can call me a Nazi then I guess? Just because I'm against the death penalty? I'm not against the death penalty to defend Nazis, I'm just against the death penalty. This post is in my opinion just shit trying to ragebait. I don't see who could benefit from it, but surely there are possible reasons for it.
