If a nazi walks into a bar and everyone else leaves, it becomes a nazi bar. (sh.itjust.works)

I never liked the analogy.

Given the entire saying, you should be forcing the nazi out of the neighborhood; not moving away from them so their nazi friends can all move in after you leave.

    My statement, the original shower thought, was referencing how the entire saying got turned into a purity test for online spaces, not that I'm against Nazi's getting kicked out of bars.

    I'm using this account because I've been seeing, almost daily, someone calling this instance a Nazi Bar. I don't think the saying works for highly segmented online forums like these.

    I wonder why so many people disagree with the idea I'm putting forth that leaving a space because of one terrible person allows terrible people to take control of a space.
