And which, exactly, are those? Which civilised society? Is Wikipedia going to be on the business of deciding which views are acceptable and which aren't?
Neo-Nazis have a particular ideology, which happens to be extremely unpopular. They are hardly the only ideology I personally find abhorrent; it's just the easiest to criticize.
What about any of the following: -- Those who support attacks on Israeli civilians (e.g. terrorism) as a legitimate means of warfare. There are several tens of million people int he world who hold this viewpoint; are they all to be banned on sight? -- Those who support fascism as a political ideology, but do not support Nazism in particular. -- Those who support Maoism, Stalinism, or other "left-totalitarian" ideologies.
If we're going to start banning certain ideologies on sight, someone needs to come up with criteria for how we decide which are unacceptable.
