    Because they are creating an equivalence between Tankies and Nazis in their mind, viewing both of them as authoritarian, so from their perspective it is related.

    Just as a disclaimer, I’m not here to say their statement makes sense, just that I think you misinterpreted their intended meaning.

      I think you two were talking past eachother. You both seem aware that the user being quoted was equivocating nazis and communists because muh authoritarianism, but it seems JuneFall interpreted your comments as agreeing that the equivocation is correct. I interpreted your comments in the thread similarly until I got to this one.
