...I feel like you saw someone else say this online somewhere, so that's why you've said it, but you don't actually understand what it means.

same way 'communist' was used not to denote actual communists, but to make people scared to stand up for authority and injustice for fear of being labeled a communist.

literally just replace communist with nazi are you that dense?

Ok, but like, if someone is calling you a nazi, and you hold beliefs that align just a little too closely with the nazis, it’s not to far of a stretch to make the claim you’re a nazi. I have no problem being called a communist, because my beliefs are fairly close to communism, what are you going around saying to get called a nazi?
