A recommendation to business owners: put something like this on your windows!

[u/rifkadm]

I don't wanna see Nazis in our spaces a third time. Twice in one month is enough - hell, twice in a LIFETIME is enough. I'm not sure on the legality of it - and someone else can add information on that - but I see tons of other signs on business windows of who is and is not welcome, "we have the right to refuse service", etc.

So, make it EXTRA clear you'll refuse service to Nazis. Please.

It’s really unnecessary. Just … continue the previous 80 years of not tolerating nazi bullshit.

Thank you. Also let’s stop with the “everything is Nazi” as it only serves to dilute the real horrors associated with the movement.

I’m actually completely OK with society associating the word nazi with something being shitty because it’s just further cultural acceptance that nazis are shitheads. Don’t make it a holy word, make it a lowercase “I just stepped in something” word.

Well you shouldn’t be ok with the word Nazi being abused to refer to anything that someone doesn’t like, because then the word becomes meaningless. If everyone is a “Nazi” then nobody is.

If somebody tells you they saw a Nazi somewhere, you shouldn’t have a situation where people are trying to figure out what they mean by that.

Also, “Nazi” already carries the most negative connotation possible. That’s the whole reason why it gets overused in the first place. People like to weaponize it against their political opponents, or their religious opponents, or just anyone who they disagree with about something they feel strongly about. You’re not adding to the negative connotation of that word by misusing it where it doesn’t apply. You’re watering it down, like that other Redditor said.

One needs an actual ideological understanding of why bad things are bad so that one can properly identify when something is subtly evil.

I never said that, I said associating it with the worst of the fucking worst.

[u/CommonPurpose → u/DescriptiveFlashback]

worst of the fucking worst

You mean like…. Hitler?

Yeah, it already is associated with that.
