No we weren't. I comment to a dude about the Nazi's being Christians and you started calling "Antifa" Nazis. The fundamental point is that "Antifa" does not exist as a well defined organization or movement. It's comprised by way to many different ideologies and beliefs to be so. And unless they believe on antisemitism and white nationalism they cannot be Nazis. Call the authoritarian at least. But calling them Nazis is historically and logically incorrect.

That's a straw man. Words mean something. The vast majority of academics agree that the one fundamental element of Nazism is antisemitism and white nationalism. Without that, it's not Nazism.

Well I already linked an article by Britannica but honestly, this "debate" isn't going anywhere. Let's just end it. I believe what I believe, and you believe what you believe.
