So you’re calling me a nazi

Nope. I specifically said "white supremacist or enabler of white supremacists", which is accurate for every Republican.

While all nazis are white supremacists, not all white supremacists are nazis. Nazism is a specific kind of white supremacist ideology that isn't identical to the brand of white supremacist fascism currently ruling the GOP.

people I neither support nor associate with

Calling yourself a Republican is as textbook "supporting or associating with" the Republican Party as it gets and the Republican Party is a white supremacist fascist party. Ergo, you're either lying or don't know what the words you're using mean. Probably a bit of both, as is standard for the Trump cult.

It convinces me to never associate with you

Don't threaten me with the lack of an awful time 😄

it also means that when you call anyone else a nazi, I will straight up ignore you

Well it's not like you paid that close attention the first time around, what with changing what words I used 🙄

you are actively enabling nazis by harboring and covering them

Nope, that would be you and the rest of your buddies in the fascist party pretending that you're just "moderate conservatives" that in no way associate with fascists by voting for a fascist party and identifying as being part of a fascist party.

Just what I would expect from a standard bigot.

More standard GOP projection 🙄

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!
