Because it's actually true. A LOT of the narratives come from the worst people. It's like with greenpeace, there's plenty of shit to dislike them for, you don't have to make shit up but more often than not that's what ends up happening. You don't have to support someone to point out that their oppositions are literal nazis. Basic dialectics.
I think dismissing an entire opposing view point as Nazis is one of the lowest forms of discourse there is, and unfortunately it's very pervasive on Lemmy.
I don't know if it's naive teenagers or just a lot of out of touch people with fringe views, but it's worse than reddit sometimes.
