"Nazi" is a term that has been generalized over the last 80 years to mean "white ultra-nationalist chirstian fascist". Sure it used to mean a member of the German National Socialist party back then, but it has been coopted, and rightly so. Hell, there are neo-Nazi groups out there proudly calling themselves that.

There! I explained it to you, hopefully the words arent too big for your brain to comprehend.

Christ you people are so sycophantically delusional.

Little buddy.

So it's whatever you decide to make up from one day to the next. That's not how words work, little fella.

You seem to be an idiot so I’ll break this down for you.

“Nazi” a short for National Socialists, which was a German far right wing party - in the political style of what we now know as Facisim - that was strongly centered on German national pride, identity, and blaming Jewish and Romani people for all of their country’s issues. It was formed by a bitter WWI who was famously rejected from art school.

While there have been many fascist governments over the years - the Confederate States of America was probably the first one - the Nazis stood out specifically because of their role in World War II and the Holocaust, which was the industrial scale genocide of Jewish, Romani, and other “undesirable” peoples of Europe.

Due to the nature of the atrocities that occurred during WWII, their name be synonymous with fascism globally.

Counter to what many conservatives think - which is a bit of a misnomer, as conservatives generally don’t think at all - there is no such thing as a liberal “fascist”, or “Nazi”. All fascists are conservative by nature. It is a conservative ideology. It would be like saying you had a conservative Communist - the words are an inherent contradiction. It can only exist on a scale relative to other fascists or communists. Communist will always be left-wing, fascists will always be right-wing.

In short, there’s a reason we call all fascists Nazis. It’s an appropriate enough label, and everybody knows what it means.. if you don’t wanna be called a Nazi, stopped acting like a fucking Nazi, you nonce.
