Comment on I've noticed that lemmy as a whole is much more leftist than reddit (outside of political servers of course)

  I do not speak for this platform, but what I mean with Nazis here, are people who support the exclusion, inhumane treatment or exploitation of arbitrary groups of people, generally for the Nazi’s (perceived) benefit and in spite of basic morals.

    And what would exclusion, inhumane treatment and exploitation mean? It’s key to clearly define the concepts before applying the label to someone, as if they stay undefined everyone can have the label applied

      Right, so another policy from the early days of Lemmy that I thought was quite vital: No endless discussions on what precisely constitutes Nazi behaviour.

      It’s truly not hard to not be a Nazi. And if someone is even roughly in the ballpark of being a Nazi, the community as a whole just doesn’t care to have that person’s input here.

      Which is a roundabout way of saying that I do not think, it’s relevant to clearly define these terms.

        Then it’s easy to fall to “Nazi is when I don’t like”

  I’ve never had a productive conversation that started with “please define what counts as a Nazi for me”.

    No argument there. But given that they mostly popup in the context of “I think all nazis…”-circlejerks, that’s kinda to be expected.
