    Where are the people saying that just because they’re fascists doesn’t mean we can call them Nazis? What do you make of this?

      aukshully, you cant just throw the name Nazi around because Nazism is a very specific form of german national socialism. and this is not germany.

        When it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck…

        The trumpnazis are literally taking signs, symbols, gestures, modus operendi, et al from German nazis. It’s not wrong to label nazis, “Nazi.” If you wish to be pedantic then by all means, trumpnazis would be completely accurate.
