It seems to me that a lot of the people who are raising moral objections are approaching it like a hypothetical. I've seen people who seem to believe that punching "Nazis" means punching people who have been metaphorically referred to as Nazis, and that there are no actual Nazis left to punch, because to their knowledge, they've never encountered them.

And of course, the reason they think of Nazis as fictional bad guys and harmless edgelords or whatever is that there are people who are able and willing to punch them whenever they poke their heads out, and the little chickenshits go back underground. As long as there are more of us than there are of them, they can be punched back into submission. They're popping up again now because they're fucking dumb and they think they're the majority. They cannot be reasoned with or hippied into loving everyone.

So if you haven't encountered Nazis in the wild, you should be thanking the Nazi punchers who've made it possible for you to assume this is some sort of hypothetical.
