Comment on GOP Mayoral Candidate Says She Won't 'Discriminate' Against White Supremacists

The paradox of tolerance has to do with being tolerant of abhorrent ideas. It has nothing to do with mistreating people that think different than you.

Nazis do a bit more than just think differently. They kill people.

  The Nazis did do more than just think differently, their thoughts didn’t round up millions of Jews and slaughter them. Their actions is what should have been stopped but they were brainwashed into thinking the people they were mistreating deserved it. The people you want oppress are not nazis and were not part of a genocide in the 40’s. You labeled them nazis to justify mistreating them.

    The article made the claim he said he was a “literal Nazi”. To most people the literal part is a cue that the author is exaggerating. Never the less what has he done? Has he rounded up “undesirables” in concentration camps? Has he participated in a genocide?
