I believe you are misrepresenting the article. It does not say that punching nazis is ok. The closest it comes to that is "To be clear, sometimes the only way to win against a Nazi is to punch them." The article is clearly advocating coherent argument over violence, dialogue over silencing. I believe you have significantly misunderstood. It's way better to combat "racial purity" ideologies (or any other speech) with more speech, with reason and truth than with violence. You mean as advocated in the article, where it states: "... we also need to understand and be ready to explain the reasons why racism, genocide and white nationalism are bad"?
