A few days ago I came across a comment in one of this Instance’s Communities made by a user of this Instance, which very directly parroted Nazi talking points. Not in a way that was satirising Nazis, but which was endorsing their type of supremacist worldview.

Other comments in that thread noted that the user in question has a history of unironically endorsing a foreign genocidal regime and its actions.

I tried reporting the comment in question, but as of today the comment still stands and the user who made the comment has been as active as ever.

Is this Instance ok with Nazis?

    Is there a particular reason why you’re dancing around saying what they actually wrote, or naming the “foreign genocidal regime”?

      Because I don’t want to bring attention to an actual Nazi. The admins have received a report on the comment in question and I’ll happily provide more details if they request.

      The comment in question was justifying Israel’s invasions with reference to “living space”—exact words.

      If you really want to, you can go back through my comment history. It’s only about 3 or 4 days ago and I called out their behaviour at the time.

          The user in question posted two top-level comments

          Uhh, no. They posted exactly one comment, and it was explicitly a Nazi talking point. I didn’t check their history myself, but according to @Aussieiuszko@aussie.zone they have quite a history of pro-Israel comments. With that context it’s impossible to read their comment as anything other than endorsing the genocide. Not even the sort of genocide denial Israeli supporters usually go for, but explicitly saying “this is genocide and it’s good.” If that’s not worth banning I don’t know what is.
