My uncle is a Republican, always has been. His views have only become truly toxic since Obama was elected and a propaganda/hate machine that had been slowly building momentum dropped a gear and went over the horizon. So for less than a 5th of his life he has been an asshole on Facebook and voted Republican and you think he and everyone like him, in the entire country, needs to be exterminated?

If when somebody goes "Kill nazis!" and your response is "Oh no, not my uncle!"

Then yes.

I am saying that your hyperbole is including people like my uncle you nonce, and it's dangerous. We need to DeNazify, not exterminate. If you're lucky enough to feel otherwise, congratulations I guess, either your family is "pure" or you're lonely as fuck

People like you tolerate them to the point where they can do their nazi shit out in the open. You're part of the problem too. "Mah famerly!" fuck off.

"people like you" is Nazi talk brother

"No u" isn't as effective as you might imagine. I'm on the side of kill nazis. You can't muddy that water.

You don't know fuck all about me, and making assumptions like you are is ugly as fuck.

I don't think a naked bike ride is gonna kill them.

[–] Linktank@lemmy.today 1 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

Probably do more to stop them than making friends with them would.

Ah yes, the guy who single-handedly peacefully ended WW2 by befriending all of the nazis and convincing them to stop their war/genocide.
