Or, you know, I don't think that literally everything I can justify with numerology is Nazism, and so I don't think I'm defending neonazis because someone used 14 letters in a game title.

Your argument is unassailable, because in your mind anyone who finds in unconvincing is a literal Nazi.

Think to yourself what someone would have to discover for you to decide they weren't Nazis.
I know what I would need to see to think that I was wrong: statements, affiliations, something beyond numerology, refusal to make changes in the face of an unfortunate coincidence, or almost anything.

What would make you say "shit, I was wrong and listening to numerology"?
