"I don't need "protecting" from ideas I may not agree with."

That's because you aren't the target. This isn't a discussion about if Love Island is groundbreaking tv or brain melting mush, it's about whether people are allowed to exist. Check your privilege and maybe try and exercise a little empathy.

Who said anything about people being allowed to exist?

If you have a social media platform then you have two choices for who's allowed to exist on it.

Either you let the Nazis stay and watch helplessly as they drive everyone they don't like off your platform, or you ban the Nazis so that you can keep everyone else.

You don't get to have it both ways. Choosing not to moderate will always create a safe space for Nazis.

Do you have any evidence that the person in question is a Nazi? Or are you using the word in the “anyone I disagree with” sense?

Who is "the person in question"? Did you think I was talking about someone specific?

I'm using the term "Nazi" as a shorthand because listing all the fascist ideologies of those who would prefer to see people like me dead would be a waste of time. I feel like this is an extremely common usage that only ever gets challenged by people who are personally invested in distancing Naziism from their own personal brand of bigotry.

I am entirely uninterested in quibbling about where exactly is the line between a literal Nazi and someone who merely acts like one.

Since the original post is about a specific person, yes, this was my assumption.

Who wants anyone dead?

Nazis.

Please pay attention.
