It is nonsense to say that. If you think "Nazism sent people to concentration camps" is not a valid thing to say, then replace "Nazism" with "Jainism [0]" or "postmodernism". Nazism entails the belief that a group of humans is inferior to other humans and that they can be destroyed. The arrow "someone is Nazi" -> "someone sends people to concentration camps" follows from their ideology. It would be absurd to say that Jainists or postmodernists send people to concentration camps, because nothing about their beliefs suggests a destruction of other people! Saying that people's -isms "don't do anything" is dangerously morally relativist. Don't pretend that meaningful things cannot be said about the consequences Nazist beliefs might have. -isms are an important categorization of what kind of software people are running on their brains. It is useful in distinguishing what kind of destructive behaviour that software can result in. [0]: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jainism http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jainism
