    Sometimes I feel kinda sorry for him for how alone he is, I can’t imagine it, although it’s pretty much his own fault for being so terrible.

      Don’t ever feel bad for a Nazi. It’s ok. You’re a human and want to think that there is some good or humanity in everyone. It’s natural. This is the exact thing that he and Nazis lack though. Don’t feel bad.

          Getting angry when you should get angry is healthy. Punch a Nazi. It keeps your humanity intact.

              When met with the crimes of empire, Gaza, Iran, Cuba, and countless more. When met with the crimes of power and wealth, Epstein, Musk, Trump, and countless more. Those that abhorre these acts and those that enact them must make sure that their hate is pure. It is a flaw of the compassionate to extend that same compassion to those that are responsible for the crimes they claim to detest.

              It’s entirely reasonable to criticize “how people feel”. Because their feelings do not remain only their heads. They interact with the world through those feelings. And if their hatred and anger is not pure, if it has doubt, they will advocate to prevent justice.

              People can “feel” how ever they want. But when those feelings bring them to telling others to “not punch a Nazi” (symbolically here), in that moment, they are just defending a Nazi from the consequences of their actions and denying justice to victims.
