President Elon Musk
He probably deserves his own thread at this point, discuss accordingly
Nope.
The term neo-Nazism describes any post-World War II militant, social or political movements seeking to revive the ideology of Nazism in whole or in part.
The term 'neo-Nazism' can also refer to the ideology of these movements, which may borrow elements from Nazi doctrine, including ultranationalism, anti-communism, racism, ableism, xenophobia, homophobia, antisemitism, up to initiating the Fourth Reich. Holocaust denial is a common feature, as is the incorporation of Nazi symbols and admirat
oh so some insane people on your tribe raped the words for you so you using them in the raped form isn't semantic raping for you lol.
according to the above ANY post WW2 racist ideology is neonazism. so the Chinese are neonazi, the Thai are neonazi, the Japanese are neonazi, the indians are neonazi and so on.
let me make it very clear: this is semantic raping. this helps actual Nazis.
and lol at "anti communism" being neonazi.
only an actual Marxist could have written that definition. and only someone as gone as you in the radical left peephole could use that definition without shame
ok so if you meant someone could be pro Israel and still be a tad antisemitic anyway, that's possible yes.
but the whole thing started with people calling Musk a Nazi.
Musk is very pro Israel. that makes it impossible definitionally for him to be Nazi, Nazi like, Nazi adjacent or anything like that.
it's completely insane to even entertain the notion that someone could be even vaguely Nazi if he isn't on the record explicitly wanting to genocide Jews (or at a minimum having hinted at that as a des
People widely use the term Nazi to mean like the Nazis. Like, imagine some group is like the Nazis in every single way except they think it's immigrants from Mexico and Central America who need to be exterminated instead of Jews. Maybe they are a tad anti-semitic too and think Jews are fine if they stay in Israel and stop importing people into the USA, but they don't want Jews exterminated. Some people would still call them Nazis, even if they didn't fit some other definition or even if the old Nazi party wouldn't agree.
Gorgonian, while I'm +1ing you, I also want to commend your use of "df" assuming it stands for dumb****.

well that's not true. the Chinese government acted like actual Nazis with Tibetans and the Uighurs but was never called a Nazi regime by the people who call Musk a Nazi.
and plenty of other regimes outside of the first world that attempted or managed to genocide minorities weren't called Nazi.
the current Myanmar regime is criticized but it isn't called Nazi. Rwandans weren't called Nazis.
the idea that a deep racial hatred equals Nazism is simply absurd, and disproven in the real world by the usage of the word by your tribe

There's more to it than just trying to exterminate a minority and I don't think China's totalitarianism and inhumanity is based on race really. It's more based on culture and ideology I think and more like the Stalinist kind of totalitarianism, which is horrible too, but I wouldn't call it Nazism or Nazi-like. Japan in WW2 was a lot more Nazi-like, and not surprising that they were allied with the Nazis.

Italy is kind of weird in here in that I don't think (Luciom you probably know more about this) that Italian Fascism was nearly as racialized as German or Japanese and Mussolini, as I understand, wasn't even keen to persecute Jews. Mussolini, aside from obviously a lot of it being about him personally, was really abstract about devotion to The State - something that, you, Luciom, are also all about.
I think Keeed made the joke even before that in the now deleted Ukraine thread

oh so Nazism is just "right-wing authoritarian".
so yes this approach carries water to actual Nazis.
you go defining people with absolutely legitimate (=constitutional ) political opinions as nazis, and the actual Nazis laugh at you and build their power base.
then you lose the tools to differentiate between actual Nazis and normal right-wing people.
those people get infiltrated by actual Nazis because of your previous choices (no way to filter them out, everyone is "neonazi").
the normal right-wing people gain power, the Nazi infiltrators can get in important positions, you did your best to achieve that.
keep going, will work well

I didn't make these rules, I'm just telling you how it's used - and how people understand it.
I think you're right in this for the most part, but I do think Elon is a little sweet on Hitler.

you know very well it's used differently by different people.
I am telling you the way people on the radical left like gorgon and others who keep going with musk being a Nazi use it is the worst possible use (typical of everything the radical left decides to do) and I argumented why
Oh but thanks rickroll for drawing my attention to Luciom crying about people "raping" his pet usage of words a full 4 months ago. It makes this much funnier.

Hey Luciom. You might want to slow your rickroll a bit there. I never once claimed Musk was a nazi. Stop "raping" my words.
hey gorgo you said that your definition of neo nazi (which doesn't require any anti semitism) is rampant.
if rampant, who are the many famous people it applies to?
Buddy, you can just google neo-nazi groups if you want to find some. Did you think I said there were famous people that were neo-nazis? There probably are, but I didn't say a word about famous people.
Nazism is almost non existent, and it would be crushed forever if not for people like you guys who call Nazis random people you dislike, allowing Nazis to grow in the shadows because we cannot as a society identify them properly anymore.
haha
the only place I know that insists on genociding the very weak frail and old (or very handicapped) is Canada
MAID isn't a genocidal policy and is practised in many countries
ye maybe genocide isn't the proper word, more like "mass killing of disabled citizens".
I am not aware of any other country that does it at any scale comparable to Canada currently
