I wasn’t sure where to post this, but it seems like Tildes is pretty much dead now. This is why decentralized is the only possible good future.
Hopefully all the users move to Lemmy/PieFed/Mbin

I liked Tildes.
Then I got temp-banned for suggesting that hitting Nazis with your car is fine.
That was the last time I used Tildes.
Sorry D. My family has a deep tradition of fighting Nazis and anyone who tells me I shouldn’t, it a Nazi apologizer.
It’s basically another tradition for reddit clones to surreptitiously setup beachheads for nazis. The ultimate effect of that is the site kills itself before it can ever become popular.
I’ve seen this pattern enough over the years. Reddit is the only OG that managed to succeed in spite of welcoming nazis.
Now that “hiding your power level” isn’t a thing anymore, they can’t help but run openly amok, which drives people away. They stayed in their own festering corners of reddit until 2016.
because it wasnt inhabited by them first.
I can understand explicit calls to violence being disallowed. As happy I’d be if all Nazis just didn’t wake up one day, we don’t need vigilantes going around deciding who to commit attempted murder against
You know, that is a fair take. It’s easy to pass judgment, but less easy to trust that everyone else would pass the same judgment on the same people you do.
Vigilantes are welcome to fight Nazis. Full stop.
The longer it takes for the justice system to do anything useful the more it feels like that’s exactly what we need.
The biggest problem is that the Nazis will use that excuse too.
Sure, but if the law doesn’t stop them then somebody else is going to have to anyway.
Please, do not murder nazis. They are not in any position of power. If you meet one of them in isolation, try to talk with them and understand their reasons, then explain your ideas.
If you meet a group of them, have a beer with them and have a chat.
If you meet a group of them attempting to perpetrate violence, call to your network of contacts, organize immediately and beat the shit out of them.
I think it would be better if you apologized and stopped providing unsolicited suggestions.
No. I disagree.
Nazi’s inherently don’t adhere to the social contract. Do not run the nazi bar. A seen nazi is a punched Nazi on sight.
Complete disagree.
Displaying nazi imagery is a choice. A choice that should only be met with immediate violence lest they learn that it is ok.
As you can see from my message above, I’m not completely against violence.
But if that’s the way you conduct your life, I’m afraid you’ll soon end up in jail.
If that is not the case then you either never see nazis, which is not so common these days, or you’re speaking empty words.
I had those kind of confrontations which end up in people picking up sticks and taking out knives with congregations of neofascists in order to protect the integrity of places, in periods in which those were being targeted and it was quite common to hear someone from your circle of friends had gotten murdered while getting back home.
What are you talking about?
I’m talking about Tildes. And how they temp banned me for suggesting that violence against nazis in public is justified.
It’s English. It goes from left to right, one word at a time. In this forum, messages are left underneath each other, suggesting the order in which they were made.
You can read them up above, if you use your eyes. Where you said I should take nazis out for a drink. Do you know what a bar that serves nazis is called? A nazi bar.
You are talking about tildes, I am sure. You were complaining because you were banned for suggesting killing Nazi people.
I did not reply regarding tilde itself: I have never used the service. Either way, the ban makes sense to me: do not suggest killing people.
I gave advice on how to handle situations and on how a situation when you meet a Nazi may be handled. You may disagree with me on that, that is fine.
But I doubt you go around killing Nazis with your car very often.
No. Just a normal bar. At this point to be fair I don’t even know what you’re referring to as Nazi. There are neonazists in several countries indeed, I guess you refer to those.
Those are people who live their lives, they have a terrible ideology in their mind. Starting to violently attack them for no reason would lead them to get more defensive, closed and ready to fight.
Having a chat with them and reasoning about their problems may lead to some of them opening up.
That does not mean you should not defend yourself need should come, as I said I had experience with that.
From your reply I read you do not have much experience with this. If you do not, do not go around telling people to hit people with their car. If you do, why the hell are you telling people to hit Nazis with their car?
What do you say after running them over?
Tap for joke
