I guess the author is choosing to ignore all the "Bash the fash" "Punch a Nazi" violent resistance to any ideas that don't support the liberal elite's sacred cows.
- Jweb_Guru 9y agoDoes "Nazis are bad" really qualify as a liberal elite position? Oh wait I just saw your username.

- checkmatelib 9y agoWho defines who is a nazi in the modern day? How is Charles Murray a Nazi in any way? You're comfortable with violent action at the behest of the fuzzy logic of incited mobs?
- jshevek 9y agoYou created a strawman in your misrepresentation of the parent comment. Edit: "Does "Nazis are bad" really qualify as a liberal elite position? Oh wait I just saw your username."
- checkmatelib 9y agoI'm sorry but if all you have to do to justify violence is to call someone a Nazi, that's terrifying. Don't like it? "What, so you like Nazis?"
- sandworm101 9y agoAnyone claiming that liberalism, left-wing thinking, lacks a potential for violence obviously has little respect for french history.

- grzm 9y agoThis is a lengthy piece. There is plenty to discuss, and it clearly contains contentious topics. Please don't extract a single statement, no matter how poor or egregious, to use as kindling to start a flamewar. Topics such as these are difficult to discuss in the best of circumstances, and even more difficult on the internet. If you're not willing to put in the effort necessary to do so, please just let it go.
- jshevek 9y agoI am shocked at the violence I have personally witnessed coming from those who casually throw around the "Nazi" label.
- dang 9y agoThis account has been used exclusively for ideological flamewar. That's an abuse of HN, regardless of ideological valence, so we've banned it. Please don't create accounts to do this.
- owebmaster 9y agoHow rude. I upvoted his post anyway. And here we have another example of liberal violence mistaken for benevolence. Censorship becomes "banning a nazi".
