Take your combined allied forces, invade where they live and hold power, and wipe them out in a large scale war. 'Cause that seemed to be the only thing that’s worked so far.
If you, personally, get to punch a NAZI along the way, that’s just a bonus.
Upvote for you because you are engaging in good faith, making salient points (even if I don’t agree with all of them) and I’m being hyperbolic.
The reason for my rhetoric is because people in the US (and Germany and here in the Netherlands …fuck man all over Europe) are not, in fact, collectively resisting fascists. At least not to the degree they/we need to.
Punching a NAZI, calling back to WWII is a tactic to get people to wake the fuck up before there’s nothing left to wake up to. I sincerely do not believe that civil engagement works anymore. Shaming, shunning, and if the need arises/opportunity presents itself, violence are the only ways to reach the fully propagandized. But that doesn’t mean your path is a valid one to discuss sincerely.
All fair points. Let me rephrase:

This is not a thing in 2025. There’s no singular stronghold where all the baddies are, such that you could eradicate them in one shot. Not to mention:
Has it actually worked, though? Because here we are, talking about the same issue still existing today, nearly a century later.

You sure it’s not just more of these tactics?
