Aight bud, I'm no centrist nor Nazi sympathiser.
When I say "do something about it", I don't mean "rant to internet strangers".
If you encounter Nazis online, laugh at them and poke holes in their wet napkin of an ideology. Don't dehumanise them.

Depending how you look at it, sadly yes. That people in the US are doing nothing about it is both terrifying and disappointing.
You're missing the point. This isn't about treating Nazis with respect, it's about not playing their game, which only benefits them.
Sweet mother of an appeal to extremes. How do you go from "don't use Nazi's playbook" to "do nothing while Nazis are committing an ethnic cleansing"?
You don't prevent a Nazi problem by playing their game of hate. It's a game they will always win. By saying shit like that, all you're doing is emboldening the hardliners and giving them ammunition, while reconfirming those doubting their beliefs.
Nazis are shitbags, yes, but like, calm down a bit. Don't stoop down to their level.
Yet another person with a lack of understanding of why Trump won.
He got about the same amount of votes as in the last election. It's the Democrats that couldn't get people to vote for them.
What I think were the main causes are not dropping Biden sooner, failure at acknowledging his shortcomings, failure at taking a stance on Palestine and attempting to appease the right instead of their core voters.
None of these have much to do with zoomers.
EDIT: Compared to 2020, Republicans gained 3.08 million votes, while Democrats lost 6.27 million.
That analogy would make sense...
If the paintbrush moved on its own.
Imagine not being able to tell the difference between "I don't believe half of their users are trans" and "I don't believe in their users being trans".
Demographics isn't transphobic. Using trans people as a shield from criticism is.
EDIT: I looked over the October survey. The graphs aren't the cleanest but the data is there: 15% of all asked identified as trans, with another 9% as trans non-binary. A sample size of 600 to the 2300 monthly users is also really good, so the data ought to be very representative.
AFAIR it follows E = mc^2, so even 5 grams will give you quite a boom.
Well, a black hole with the mass of an A4 page is gonna evaporate almost instantly, turning all of that mass into energy. Those 5 grams will give you about a 100 kT explosion.
Good lord, it's a metaphor, not an actual game you play. And where did I say anything about enabling them? You really don't get what I'm saying.
You go around threatening and dehumanising Nazis? It does nothing. No one changes their mind about anything. It's performative at best. At worst, those questioning their beliefs will see stuff like that and gain resolve for their ideas. Hardliners will use it as ammunition. They will use what you're saying as an excuse to gain more power and restrict your rights to "protect" themselves.
Go organise, vote, protest, resist. That is how you stop Nazis. Take lessons from us Europeans, had to denazify half our continent, and who continue to keep our far right away from power.
