I will fight against Nazism, but I don't want to loose the spirit of creativity and understanding that the fandom provides in the process
Indeed, we should act with great care - but Nazism seeks to oppose and remove all that which it disagrees with. It is wholly incompatible with the ideals I hold for the Furry Fandom - and I think those are ideals you hold as well.
The fandom's strength partially comes from its diversity of viewpoints, but how much strength can be added by a philosophy that condemns all other viewpoints but its own? While yes, we should take care not to mislabel those we simply do not like as Nazis (despite many accusations of such leveled at me), we should not think it is a violation of the ideals we both share to condemn and attempt to cut out those who seek to work against those ideals.
