I don't think it paints the baddies as the lesser evil when you refuse to tolerate their expressing of Nazi views. If you're at a table where a Nazi starts expressing their views, you can tell them that their views aren't welcome or leave the table. I think the phrase is about not being complicit or silent while these views are expressed.

It actually is a crime to express Nazi beliefs in Germany — the legal concept of "Volksverhetzung" that's talked about in this article.

We can both agree on:

Nazi raus!

I generally feel like it's a waste of time and energy to try and convert a Nazi to reasonable beliefs.
