Now with 25 million users, Bluesky is facing a test that will determine whether or not its platform will still be seen as a safe space and place of refuge
If you have a social media platform then you have two choices for who’s allowed to exist on it.
Either you let the Nazis stay and watch helplessly as they drive everyone they don’t like off your platform, or you ban the Nazis so that you can keep everyone else.
You don’t get to have it both ways. Choosing not to moderate will always create a safe space for Nazis.
Who is “the person in question”? Did you think I was talking about someone specific?
I’m using the term “Nazi” as a shorthand because listing all the fascist ideologies of those who would prefer to see people like me dead would be a waste of time. I feel like this is an extremely common usage that only ever gets challenged by people who are personally invested in distancing Naziism from their own personal brand of bigotry.
I am entirely uninterested in quibbling about where exactly is the line between a literal Nazi and someone who merely acts like one.

Do you have any evidence that the person in question is a Nazi? Or are you using the word in the “anyone I disagree with” sense?

Since the original post is about a specific person, yes, this was my assumption.
Who wants anyone dead?
