Hello
I would like to report the following
and request their immediate cancellation.
If possible, also of all accounts of their
listeners/members.
Allow me to remark that Last FM seems
to be most unconcerned, naive and falsely
tolerant about certain tendencies in certain
musical subculutres
and therefore a very convenient forum
for Neonazi / Racist / Antisemitic propaganda
and exchange.

Hi,
We take reports like this very seriously.
We do have artist profiles for these bands with pictures and wikis (just like
wikipedia), but please note that we don't offer any music for streaming nor do
we link to websites, where you could buy their music.
If you come across any offending comments in artist shoutboxes, where users
make propaganda for their ideology or post something offensive which doesn't
comply with our community guidelines (see
http://www.last.fm/help/guidelines),
you can report these to us and we will look into the matter and act
accordingly.
Regards,
The Last.fm Support Team

I have to strongly disagree here.
There is one huge important difference between Wikipedia and Last.fm:
Wikipedia is meant to be a dynamic source of so called objective information,
whatever that means. Anyway; opinion, taste, world view, private exchange and community networking are – at least intentionally – excluded from that concept.
Last.fm, on the other hand, is a fan base and a community interface. Things are not displayed here for educational or journalistic purposes, but for enjoyment and participation.
Propaganda starts in the moment you display an explicit ideology and open up a channel for like-minded to positively comment and applaud.
that's exactly what happens on Last.fm profiles.
Of course you do not stream the songs of those bands. They're indexed!
Incredible enough, you make 30 second previews available and display band photos with swastikas. It really doesn't make such a difference if you stream an entire nazi rock album or just have a profile with the band's name. in either case, fans and like-minded have a forum to meet, exchange and enforce their networks.
You are not the journalists documenting nazi activities. You are the billboard on which they write their messages. I am sorry to say, but by not realizing this and not wanting to realize it, you are part of the problem and surely not part of the solution.
