Substack says it will not remove or demonetize Nazi content
(www.theverge.com)
A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I think you have misunderstood what the other user was saying, and/or are not thinking through what you are saying.
You said "All areas should be nazi-free areas", but unless you are advocating for putting them up against a wall, that is not possible to do. That is what the other user meant by "'Tow it outside the environment' is not an option". By the way, I think that expression is a reference to this; it's not very relevant to this topic, but might help illustrate the point they were making.
Another alternative, like the other user mentioned, would be "lifelong reeducation camps"; but not only does that have questionable morality behind it, it's also not a view that merges very will with the idea of abolishing the police and especially prison systems, which so many on the left, especially the more libertarian left (which btw a lot of Beehaw seems to lean towards, including me, and I think the other user as well), subscribe to.
Like the saying goes: "don't attribute to malice what can be explained by stupidity/ignorance", or something like that; there are real life examples of former Nazis/white supremacists changing their views just from interacting with other people outside that group. When you think of a Nazi, you're probably thinking about the smart and actually evil ones that tend to be at the top, but a large part (I think the vast majority) are just the product of fear and ignorance (think average German during WW2); and when you try to erase/separate those people from society, one way or another, you're often just feeding into that ignorance and fear.
