Hahahahaha, yeah right. That never works. People use "nazi" as a thought-terminating cliché. Look at how people react to Stonetoss comics.
Yeah. I’ve seen a lot of ‘thought-terminating cliches’. Politically Correct. Free Speech. Racist. Homophobe. Thoughtcrime. UnAmerican. State Rights. 2nd Amendment. Etc.

Why would you let the thought terminate there and question them about it?

It's the people who use the terms that stop thinking, so if you question them, they just say "NAZI!!! I DON'T HAVE TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTIONS!"
And? Ask your questions anyway. If they don’t want to answer, it’s on them

I mean, you can call us whatever you like. If we going to act like someone, it’s not going to be a Nazi. It would probably be more like a communist.

People tend to throw terms around for things they think are true. I.e. when they say X is a Nazi, they think they have enough evidence to say that. You may disagree that there is enough evidence. Great. Have a discussion on the merits of the evidence. When people claim that I’m a communist or Nazi or whatever, I’m defend it by saying what I think the difference between interpretation of evidence

How about I reword my initial paragraph into speech that might help you understand my problem. You keep trying to pretend that using the word Nazi is a thoughtcrime. You keep pretending about to be about free speech but very against words like Nazi. Shouldn’t you be backing everyone who say Nazi becuase they are using Free Speech. Also, how may times have I called someone a Nazi in this thread?
Except there's basically 0 evidence against the person I claimed but people were happy to go along with it and not point that out.

Which would be showing people are fine with misuse of the term.

No. You think there is 0 evidence. Other people may think there is evidence

So where is the evidence again? Because it sure hasn't been presented in this thread yet.


How is anyone supposed to take an OP seriously that suggests him not having an emote on twitch is erasing him from history?
More case of erasing part of the platforms history / some-one who helped them build the thing up. it's a case of "You're no longer convenient to us thanks for all the time you helped building the platform but we'd rather pretend you didn't exist now.

It wasn't stricken from the records or something. This is like saying a grocery stores is erasing their history by switching products. That's not how it works, this was an emote not a record of their history.

Lacking any kind of contract with him yes there is no issue dropping him for being a toxic commodity. Unless you have some document stating they're supposed to stick with him regardless of what he says I do not see the issue aside from making a mountain out of a molehill by some people like the OP being ridiculously dramatic

You were perfectly happy with me doing so were you? Seems you didn't disagree with me on the claim at all lol.
I have asked you to go talk to the people you think called him a Nazi. Repeatedly. Find out what they believe and stop pretending their positions

I have also asked you to stop blaming us for your fights on the internet. Stop painting us with the same brush because you think we're on the same side as someone uses the word racist etc.

Yet people were still happy to go along with what I said.

It's funny really because I pointed out to you or one of your fellow earlier this week that you were strawmanning my position and beliefs. You know despite how I've made my positions fairly clear in the past on things and was able to point out how you just ignored what I'd said time and time again.

You want some-one to blame for internet fights happening? Look in the mirror because the way you interpret what people have said is often disingenuous at best and at worst outright malicious.

It's funny even going through all this you still refuse to actually make a definitive statement because why do that when you can just keep pretending you never went along with anything. What's the phrase "If you stand for nothing you'll fall for anything" well seems you fell for my little trap and now are just bitter about it.
