Call them what you will, but I just don't see the slightest reason why we should continue to provide such people with a free soapbox to spread their beliefs.

23:29 - Starvynth

But what would you call users who abuse this site to openly sympathize with the ideas of misogynists (Tate), blatant racists (Turtiainen) and right-wing nutcases (Nugent)?

23:28 - Starvynth

Is this about Nazis at all? To me, that's just a hollow catch-all term that has become detached from its original meaning.

23:11 - Karlabos

Well, that is about as many nazis as there were in the nazi germany in their prime...

23:09 - A Real Monkey

However many Nazis we have in America, that number is too high.
