Nah, if you're fine with people getting debanked for having opinions you disagree with, that's shameful.

DHH on Andrew Tate btw:

> You don't have to like any of Andrew Tate's takes on men, women, wealth, or the world to see that this modern, coordinated unperson campaign against his "wicked words" is crazy. It's also likely to be counterproductive. I'd literally never heard of Andrew Tate until he got banned. Now he's everywhere, and has a credible martyr role to drape his spiel in.

> Posts like his Calling someone a "nazi" is a permission slip for violence is simply untrue no matter who you are or where you live.

It is simply true. Lots of people think it’s okay to punch nazis. There was a whole public debate about that around 7 years ago when a famous nazi got punched. The phrase “punch a nazi” got quite popular after that.

I don't know man, when I lived in a rather big city, I saw lots of stickers everywhere inciting violence towards Nazis, the people I used to hang around with adopted that lingo over the years and just scrolling through Mastodon I see a lot of foamy mouths whenever some masked dude attacks someone they perceive to be a nazi. Another example is some "nobody " (as in not some influencer or something) whom I don't know personally but he probably didn't throw a stone into his own window after he was interviewed in some live stream about his critical views on migration at a public protest. You have a lot of crazy people on all sides and the more you devalue certain terminology until it applies to a broad spectrum of people, it becomes a way to dehumanize them in the eyes of a certain group and all it needs for violence to erupt is one loose canon in a mental health crisis.

Lol, so you went from "this guy is a pedo" to "this guy is loosely associated with something that's associated with something else that a felon volunteers on"
