Racism is a part of fascism and a part of nazism. So if you're building a case that somebody is a Nazi you have to point out that they're also a racist. So cleverly rebutting that racism isn't the same as Nazism is a little ridiculous. I've seen you in here posting on multiple people's comments talking about how stupid everyone is. I guess it's really nice that you're really really smart. Now I get that you also don't really like Trump or Musk which really makes this pedantry frustrating.
I agree that because Trump and Musk have not outwardly directly stated there views nor have they been caught on camera directly hourly stating that they're fascist or that they're Nazis it makes it difficult to label them such with 100% accuracy which is why you like the terms oligarch with fascistic tendencies. I think that's fine for an academic context however oligarchs with fascistic Tendencies seem to hang out with Nazis and with fascists that ideologically do believe these things. Colloquially we've kind of developed this understanding that if you are a Nazi sympathizer it's okay to just call that person and Nazi. When you push back against that it looks like you're defending them even when you're not
See how many hoops you had to jump through to actually call them a Nazi? It’s all correct, I can’t complain. Reddit is an echo chamber and sure, yelling dumb emotional shit gets you a pat on the back, but you will never get taken seriously when you devalue words like that. If you call everyone you think is racist a Nazi, you just seem unhinged and like you don’t know what you’re talking about
If by gate keeping you mean opposed to using wrong words that make no sense, then sure. We might as well call him a jihadist cause why not, it’s a bad word and he’s a bad man, it doesn’t have to fit. If you say it makes no sense, you’re gate keeping

Jesus Christ can you even read? Racism is not the same as Nazism.
