Who was talking about neo-nazis gaining power? The pendulum doesn't need to swing in only two directions. Any power given to a governing body (be it government or literally country-sized corporations) to control the speech of the people will not be something relinquished without a fight. I think it is incredibly short-sighted to reach for such a drastic solution simply because it is the most convenient solution at the time. The PATRIOT and FREEDOM Acts are perfect examples of such overreach and practically every government on Earth has a good example of similar overreach given to them by the governed population at some point in time. Deplatforming gives them a more powerful rhetoric to use for sympathetic ears wherever they do end up finding ears - and they will find somewhere willing to take their money at some point. "The ${whatevers} are trying to keep us down. They go after our advertisers, after our living. They don't want the truth that we preach to be heard. They do everything in their power to prevent you from knowing the truth but I won't be stopped. Yadda yadda yadda." is a bit more convincing and trivially provable than the usual drivel they come up with. Moving things into the dark where you can't watch it is going to make it more dangerous, not less. It doesn't get rid of it - it just removes it from your view. The equivalent of closing your eyes and hoping the monster goes away.
