    History also shows that the only way to stop Nazis is to punch them often and early.

    Do you have an example of this, or are you extrapolating from the failure of appeasement prior to World War II?

      … there aren’t many other examples of Nazis outside of the 20s, 30s and early-mid 40s. Kind of hard to find any example outside of that time frame.

        You said “history shows” that punching them is the best way to solve the issue. What in history shows that?

          Violence against Nazis pretty definitively defeated Nazi Germany in WW2, and the lack of violence against Nazis on the international stage failed to arrest their advances before the outbreak of war.

          In Britain, the Battle of Cable Street was a highly influential action in which violence against fascists stymied their growing influence.

            I’m talking about violence committed by individuals, not states in wartime.

              Battle of Cable Street was violence committed by individuals.
