why are there so many neo-nazi sympathizers on hackernews...
Unfortunately HN has apparently become a haven for Nazi sympathisers.
The people claiming he's a nazi
Can we please not promote neo-Nazis (s*ckless) or their software on HN?
Please stop: posting fulminating Nazi threats is against Hacker News guidelines.https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
This user is a repeated defender of nazism - how is this permitted on a civilised forum like HN?
Another day, another nazi on HN
Let's take your logic and apply it to HN.There are some Nazis here. If you do not stop posting here you are associating with Nazis. Since you post here you are either a Nazi or Nazi sympathizer.
interesting 180 degree turn for them. will they also stop banning people for calling out nazis?
Nothing. You are just on a forum that is populated mostly by people on the left of the political spectrum in the US, and you alluded to fact that contradicts their current moral panic about the danger of "Nazi" groups in the US. And, yes, they are much rarer.
