Let me say few words about this issue:
The idea of normalization is false, and it was proven time and time again. You can not normalize something just by shoving it in someones face. At least to adult individuals. It is the same "Video games cause violence" over and over again. However, I think that the "enabling" concept is real, but people heed to have some preexisting biases to be affected by it. Very few people have those.
Then there is a slippery slope. Some say this is a compete fallacy, but for one reason it works. And this reason is the wording of the problem. If you say that "Showing X promotes X sympathizers" it enables an ability to apply it to every term possible. And then anything even remotely related to "X" becomes bad. I really don't want to delve into the recent events in America, but let's look at it on the example of toppling statues:
First, they said that statues of Confederates are promoting slavery and racism, so they must go. Most agreed with that.
Then, they said that about statues of"[Presidents":](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LdSJvgZqyn4) and "[Abolishes":](https://youtu.be/d94ZBcykHwI?t=136), because they also promote racism and slavery, for some reason.
And to top it all, they"[destroyed the elk statue":](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D6tVp661kvs), because elks are apparently very racist and slave owners
I don't understand why after all this events people are still saying that slippery slope is not real.
Most people know that Nazis are bad and Nazi ideology is flawed at its core. And also most people know that the best way radicalize people is to create an echo chamber. That's why the "Iron Curtain" existed. That's why "The Great Chinese Firewall" exists. That's why only leaders of North Korea have an access to global internet.
Also I highly recommend to watch Jojo Rabbit movie. Yes, that moviewiabouth a kid with imaginary friend Hitler. Also "[THIS":](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vSGZrpN7ahQ) video. It is about said movie so it contains some spoilers.
