    Killing Nazis isn’t wrong in the slightest. The USA has a rich history of doing exactly that.

    We do have to make sure that they’re actually Nazis though. Maybe if their leader were to perform two back to back obvious sieg heil salutes then we could know for sure.

      I think that dehumanizing other humans is something to be on the watch for. It doesn’t make you a Nazi to wonder if you’re also morally unsound

        You aren’t dehumanizing anyone. Nazis did the dehumanizing themselves, who are you to object to that personal freedom of choice.

        It’s also important to keep in mind that intolerance cannot be fought off with tolerance. It’s not possible. You have to not tolerate the intolerant.

          Yes and you couldn’t possibly be wrong about what a nazi is in a world where that term is thrown around more every day.

        Nazis are human. Cruelty is all too human. The problem is, some people are completely beyond help, and will kill you just for existing, the first chance they get. You have to be ready if that happens, because it might happen sooner than you think.

          Yeah, see the problem, echoed in nearly every philosophy in human history, is that you shouldn’t enact vengeance (preventative or otherwise) because you might be wrong. It’s the same reason the death penalty is immoral.

          As much as I’d like to see some of these fucks at the end of a rope, that doesn’t mean I will be making any blanket statements which assume I always know who the “bad” guys are.

        What morals? You think I should have to play by some made up set of rules that the Nazis couldn’t give two shits about?

          And this is the crux of the statement. Social contracts are group moral codes. The Nazis do not adhere to the terms of the contracts and thus are not protected by them.
