Correct and an important distinction generally. But in the given context, what difference does it make? Would we ban a NS-Nazi, but not a Mussolini-fascist? In the brevity of the comment which started this chain, I think “Nazi shit” referred to both. Since both has no place, and both are very similar to each other for all intents and purposes of Lemmy moderation.

Yes, we could simply use the correct term and oppose ‘fascists’, but internationally, both terms are practically synonyms.
