If so, do you consistently report it and get the feeling that it gets dealt with? Of course there are instances dedicated solely to being human trash

    The problem with this assessment is that we’ve tried the approach of reasoning with people like this and all it does is allow them to proselytise. They don’t want a polite debate, they want a pulpit.

    A neo-Nazi who’s stuffed in a box talking to other neo-Nazis is a neo-Nazi who’s not infesting some other place trying to spread shit about “race realism”. They’ll find it a lot harder to “march on Washington” when it’s just a couple hundred Nazis and not a couple hundred Nazis plus thousands of others they’ve radicalised.

    Sunlight’s a shitty disinfectant. I prefer bleach.

      Yep. Deplatforming them works. When forced to their safe spaces, they have a much harder time recruiting.

      No, you don’t argue with them. You berate them. You harass them. Treat them with their own medicine. They aren’t intelligent enough to get got with knowledge. That’s why it hasn’t worked. You’ve tried to outsmart people without brains.
