oh are we gonna co-exist with the Nazis?

it also seems like a lot of leftists will say they are anti-authoritarian but then say Nazi lives don't matter. It can't be both.

I think it's well established at this point that anarchists and 'auth leftists' have a different definition of authoritarian (and 'state' for that matter)

It seems similar to that old debate about 'reverse racism' vs racial prejudice- the sociological definition of racism includes oppression, but the dictionary definition didn't/doesn't, so people were largely arguing over semantics
