RE: YouTube's "Nazi Ban" further clamps down on free speech online 🧐
"I think you're naturally going to get lumped in with antisemites and neo-NAZIs if you throw around terms like "Jootube". Interesting that you talk about throwing around terms and then use the word nazi (although with the prefix neo). Nazism is serious word with specific meaning that is getting watered down. People say neo-nazi so that can have the satisfaction of calling someone something that they're not (a nazi) but without taking responsibility for saying it (by using a word strongly associated with yet supposedly independent from it).
I am well aware the term NAZI has been watered down and routinely used as a smear tactic. Nevertheless, there are (and have been for a long time) a very small group of people who are neo-NAZIs. These are people who actually dress up in NAZI uniforms and solute the NAZI flag, etc. Yes, those people really exist, and they are somewhat of a laughing stock. Note that I did not call Drutter a neo-NAZI or a NAZI (I don't think he is one). What I'm saying is if you (the royal you) run around claiming the Jews run everything, and are responsible for all the ills in the world, you're going to get lumped in with those sorts of misguided folks, and you're arguments are going to summarily dismissed without consideration.
