    A Nazi is just an end stage authoritarian, once the malignancy has become terminal. There are other words, but only dishonest people care to make the distinction.

      No. Nazi means national German socialism workers party, which was a german political party that did some notable things, like starting WW2, the Holocaust. You may want to look them up, the history is interesting.

      Two things being similar does not mean they are the same thing. Is every end stage cancer pancreatic cancer to you? Is every war just the great war to you ( I know you have not heard of WW2 yet).

      If you cannot understand that nazi actually is a word with meaning, and not just something you say when you think a group is authoritarian or evil, than you have absolutely no room in you brain for the slightest glimmer of nuance or basic comprehension of anything.

      What? Why are you so overwhelmingly confident in your statements? Why are you so quick to dismiss anyone who has even the slightest disagreement to your quite aggressive and absolutist opinions?

      Also it’s unclear to me why Nazis are the “end stage”. They were definitely evil and neo Nazis today are definitely fucked in the head but you have not given a causal reason for why or how all authoritarian movements become Nazis.
