For any one not aware Stormfront / Daily Stormer are hardcore actual (neo)nazis.

hardcore or just keyboard ones? I would estimate only a small % go beyond that.

The words you say can make you a Nazi.

Anyone know what he actually posted? I'm trying to find that to get some context. I'm sure it was awful if it was on the Daily Stormer but, I'm interested to see how awful. Edit: I found one of the articles referenced in the complaint[1]. They allege he wrote 800 articles for the site but that's the only one they're associating to him as far as I can tell?

Dunno, seems tricky.

If we equate keyboard warriors with the people who actually commit atrocities, we're in a sense lowering the severity of those atrocities to be equal to being a sad edge lord.

Spreading ideas on the internet is spreading ideas to other meat sponges. I wouldn't consider most of the mass shooters of the past decade to be anything more than sad edge lords, but they've ended a ton of lives and ruined far more. Most skinheads are in loosely organized groups, not American History X or Sons of Anarchy with massive financial backing and tight-knit organization.

People have ideas, ideas don't have people.

If it was true that merely being exposed to an idea had the ability to take over and control a person like a mindless puppet, then democracy would simply not work, instead the only viable option would be strict control over thoughts and communication prevent harmful ideas from taking over peoples minds.
