    OP doesn’t necessarily supports the trampers, he is just pointing out that republicans despite being cartoonishly evil are definitionally not nazis

      Sure, they’re not part of the German National Socialist party, but their policies sure rhyme with them.

        …are you okay with the dems being called communists because they are somewhat left to the reps? After all words don’t mean anything

        I’m completely fine with calling the republican party and literally every single person who voted for Trump a fascist.

        I’m also completely fine with saying “execute fascists”

        But I hate using the term Nazi to describe fascists (unless they are literal self-ascribed neo-nazi’s)

        It’s needlessly inflammatory, technically incorrect and has the optics of “everyone I don’t like is Hitler” (it’s kinda juvenile tbh).

        Based off Eco’s 14 traits of fascism, Trump and Kirk were full blown fascists.

        That doesn’t make them Nazi’s though.
