The DM was a DM asking us to change our no tankies policy and remove the fuck tankies banner as it was apparently upsetting hexbear users. Apparently tankies view the word tankie as a form of slur. The admin wants us to ally as a form of "left solidarity"

If we were at war and they were soldiers, sure. Otherwise it's murder.

I like this logic. Killing should be a last resort.

Further, if I had a billion dollars to spend, I'd sooner spend it on organizations like Life After Hate and get them the resources necessary to deconvert and deprogram Nazis than I would on any iteration of our current system of playing whack-a-mole with their censor-evading code words. Or on some Nazi-killing executioner.

I hate how quick people are to advocate giving up on their fellow humans.
