Edit: The term feminazi was once used as a shorthand for “feminist nazi” for those that don’t know.

    That was back when Nazi was a slur for (often authoritarian, or just loud) people you didn’t like, see Soup Nazi on Seinfeld.

    It’s also why Godwins Law was written.

    Now that actual Nazis are back in power, we need to reserve the term or risk dilution, also Godwins Law isn’t relevant when there are real Nazis involved.

      “Socialism” is a dirty word to them. Why would they want the national variant of it?
