They tried that with the Munich Agreement
It's not 1938 anymore. We understand a lot more about people and where boundaries should be including things like "no genocide." A lot of Nazis could be rehabilitated if they were educated and given therapy and community not based in racism. Or at least I believe so, and I believe in nonviolent communication. I think it doesn't benefit genuine anti-Nazi movements to prohibit rehabilitation and education. And no, it's not rehabilitation or education to be complicit, or actively saying Nazi speech.
That shit doesn't work with fascists.
I think it does, it works with literally everyone else and we have scientific data showing it as well as lay people who help rehab and convert white supremacists and neonazis.
The thing is, if that shit DOES work with fascists, then it creates a burden of nonviolent methods being used first. And violence is so much easier and simpler - it's exactly why the fascists use it too. But yeah, we gotta be creative and try harder and use nonviolent solutions.
This shit is why I'm against spanking, it makes kids stupid and teaches them to commit and expect violence when there's an issue instead of problem solving. It's too bad you can't conceive of a world with nonviolent solutions, since violence itself causes fascism to worsen.
