I want Nazis to be scared to share their ideas. I want Nazis to be so scared they don't crawl out of the gutters they live in.

That's basically what the right wants for the left!

Not really. The right tends to go a little bit harder in that direction:

Are you not white? Be scared. Jew? Be scared. Muslim? Be scared. Gay? Be scared. Socialist? Be scared. Woman? Be scared.

The left is a lot better in that regard, as they tend to limit the "bash their heads in" option toward literal Nazis. It seems to me that the right doesn't feel a need to limit themselves in any way here.

Please describe how you imagine a "Nazi" wakes up and gets ready for their day. I'm curious what's behind the label. Would you also use the words 'toxic' and 'bigot' to describe these people and if not what does a 'toxic' person and a 'bigot' do to start their days? (from your perspective, of course)

What? Obviously a Nazi wakes up at 7:30 sharp, puts on their arm band then combs their dumb little brush mustache. Then they heil and finish getting ready. /s

What kind of question is that? There's no one way nazis wakes up. That's not what makes a Nazi a Nazi.

Are you trying to imply Nazis aren't bigots and dangerous/toxic to society, and if not - why did you even ask this? What is the purpose of that question if not to imply that?

I'm talking about Nazis. Nazi Nazis. The Nazis that keep popping up everywhere. This was news, big news at the time. Pretending like you didn't see it isn't an excuse now, because you've now been shown it.
