    It’s unfortunate. I got yelled at for saying fascists and Nazis should be deplatformed. Someone literally tried to “whatabout if we did that to LGBT people” me. I’m trying different instances in good faith, but the ones that hold that kind of logic aren’t going to last long.

      Ah gotta love that argument

      “We can’t deplatform Nazis, we need to be a tolerant group.”

      “They literally want us dead and are doing their best to make our existence illegal, tolerating that is not an option.”

      Tolerance is a peace treaty, and the more people who understand that the better.
