The point I was trying to make was that someone's opinion isn't a good reason to condemn them - either now or in future. A lot of people who are voting FOR seem to be voting based on the idea that Nazi = Bad. Voting to condemn may feel like it's "taking a stand against bigotry" but in reality it's voting to continue to promote them, whilst at the same time setting an example that all you need to do to get a condemnation is to have an unpopular political position.
Nazis already know they're unpopular, they're not going to change their minds if you tell them that. Also since people are moving out of other regions to join ERoGC due to the publicity they're suddenly getting, Anti-Nazis are less likely to get the chance to change any Nazis mind through discussion.
I am upset that RL Nazism exists, but I do not obsess over it. Rather, I am playing a political game in which I support the UN-like body in this fictional world holding an opinion that is against Nazism, based on the ideology that my nation holds.
Well, most of the people who vote AGAINST are only doing so because 1) the region in question is pretty small, 2) condemnations are usually reserved for R/D, weakening the condemnation.
I too believe that Nazism is horrible. But condemnations aren't what I recommend.
