Republicans know they're nazis. They do not have a problem with being Nazis, they are supremacists and they want to hurt you not for saying they're nazis, but because we say it as a derogative. They absolutely do not wonder why we keep calling them nazis. Nazis, it turns out, will gaslight people they feel they're superior to.
And they believe they're superior to us because they do not have empathy. They know they're evil, and it's by choice.
My father got in on the tail end of WWII. He was asked to guard a bridge and stop Nazis from trying to escape. Nazi are going to destroy us we don’t stop them first.
I am fan of freedom of speech. But imo I think illegal Nazi salutes are an acceptable limitation of that right.
Also I think that legally, the possession of Nazi paraphernalia should be as severe a crime as the possession of CSAM (which like, given how things are going if they have one, they likely have the other so...check them hard drives).
Nazi ideology isn't just speech, it's a promise of future violence and genocide. If Germany ain't fucking with it (disgusting fucks in the AfD aside) the US shouldn't either.
Imo I believe Nazi speech itself should be enough to constitute "Incitement of Violence" which is already illegal even under the first amendment, but what do I know? I'm a leftwing lesbian who won't give right wing guys the time of day (read: I'm the anti Christ apparently) so take from that what you will.
They are a bunch of little shitty horrible pathetic excuses of humanity and frankly a good punch in the face would do them good. But they arent wrong - the University of Florida is a government institution and as such is prohibited by the First Amendment from punishing them for their (disgusting) speech.
But I’m not prohibited from (peacefully) preventing their speech. I could likely drown them out pretty easily with a good sound system and enough protesters.
When workeing as an engineer in south Florida I sometimes mentored UF student engineering teams. As a result, I was in Gainesville during several elections and noticed that there were loads of GOP banners plastered around the campus, but no Democratic ads. Greek row was particularly heavily slathered in right-wing junk.
Sadly,you are right. With the resurge of neo-nazis in Germany, you could (whatever you want) all day, for the rest of your life, nomatter how old you are, or how long would live.

I love how this article describes it as a 'nazi problem' and not the infestation and filth that it really is. https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/political-commentary/republican-party-nazi-problem-1235530169/

Upon reading the headline my first thought was Texas. Second Florida. Nazi gov't leadership leads to visible Nazism in schools.

You’re either a Nazis or not. Sympathy implies you condone the behavior, making you an enabler, which is a Nazis

If you're taking legal action for the right to be a nazi, I'm gonna go out on a limb and say you're a nazi.

"How about fucking NO." Then kick them all out for violating school ethics, morals or whatever standards they agreed to when they applied there.

Naw if your an enrolled student you have a code of conduct. Which can be violated and have you removed.

You're. Also pretty sure constitutional laws trump codes of conduct. Unfortunately.

It should be a requirement.

It is always morally correct to punch a Nazi.
earthtokelly127001
It’s an obligation.
SavageDrums
I wouldn't go that far. There are many situations where you should not punch a Nazi. Like if there's 20 Nazis and you are alone.
But you should definitely punch Nazis every time the opportunity presents itself.
SavageDrums
Yes. Encouraged even.
MissMeaniePie
As a German, I say it's always okay to punch a Nazi. Fuck I could Nazis all day
