    My god, what a bad faith “test”. Why not say something like “all Nazis are garbage pieces of shit”? Probably because you’re hoping that the mods will remove your comment for the call for violence, so you can claim they’re pro-Nazi/ anti- anti-Nazi.

      Do you think nazis should be killed? Certainly no one is fighting their global rise to power.

        Nice try at dodging the point. Is advocating for Nazis to be killed the only manifestation of being anti-Nazi (which unless you are being sought for murder, I guarantee you’re not acting on), and any other action is pro-Nazi? If not, why choose a test that, aside from its anti-Nazi message, might run afoul of site moderation rules?

            I do what? Think Nazis deserve to die? Or think that you’re a bad-faith-posting dork who thinks you’re much more clever than you are?

            Yes.

              What you think of me means nothing as long as you want Nazis dead. ;)
