South Korean President Lee Jae Myung pledged this week to go after “far-right” critics both at home and abroad, following his recent White House summit with President Trump. The move has raised alarm among U.S. officials over potential infringement on free expression and transnational repression tactics.
Lee met with Trump on Aug. 25 at the White House to discuss trade, defense, shipbuilding and other strategic issues. But tensions were visible — Lee stayed at a hotel instead of the traditional Blair House, was greeted by lower-level officials, and left without attending a formal state dinner.
Imagine a world, where AI scans your social media. If you’re a facist pig that supports MAGA pedophiles, you can’t buy anything or get services.
This is a world I would live in and rejoice. Fuck facists, Nazis and POS pedophiles, plus the fucks that defend them.
I hate to tell you this, but that’s pretty fascist of you.
Sounds like a super easy way to disenfranchise anyone you dislike. If there’s no due process, there are no rights, because you can simply be declared a supporter.
Sounds like shit
Ah, yes. Thoughtcrime and suppression of freedom of speech are totally okay as long as it’s our side doing it. No, no, no, see, when we do it it’s totally different from when other people do it!
Yep. The problem with these people is less whom they are. And more how they act. If we act like them. Then we are also the problem.
Should nazism not be considered a thought crime?
No crimes should be thought crimes. All crimes should be action crimes. There can be no middle ground as long as freedom of expression exists.
Doing Nazi shit should get you locked up (or beaten up, or whatever). Talking about it should just get you ridiculed by everybody.
Talking positively about it in a public space is illegal in many countries. It counts as promoting it. It’s a useful guardrail against having it return as a mainstream ideology.

You don’t deprive racist and Nazis the ability to live in society. At least not permanently and for all equally. The goal should be to educate them and reintegrate them back into society. By force if necessary. And if that’s not possible for all then they must remain apart from society by force.
All you would accomplish by your method is creating a right wing terrorist group.
People give Stalin shit for “re-education” camps. And the methods and failures in their implementation can be criticized.
But, the real question really is difficult. What do you actually do with people that want other people killed because of their race/identity or are plotting to overthrow a democratic government that defeated those Nazis? Those people have proven they are not able to live in society. But means need to be available to educate them and reintegrate them if they are capable of change.
So, I don’t really agree with the other comments. I don’t think what you’re saying is “fascism”.
There are reasons to protect a society and a revolution from Nazis and those that wish to overthrow it. Hell, one the big reasons we are here today is because liberals love to “both sides” anyone that says “punching a Nazi is good”.
They clutch their pearls and pretend that “punching a Nazi makes you just as bad as them”.
Those types of “don’t resist. No violence” soft liberal takes are what got us here. Its what allows fascism to take control as it has. Normalizing every small escalating act of state violence and condemning anyone that would use violence to resist it.
