Lmao yes those poor nazis didn’t get enough love
I guess the headline was right after all
Tolerance is a peace treaty. You do not give tolerance to intolerance. If your core ideology is the rejection, dehumanization, or destruction of other groups of human beings, then your group does not deserve respect or consideration.
This is the type of rhetoric I’m talking about. Call someone intolerant and you can do whatever you want to them. “Punch a Nazi!”, etc.
The irony of this story going viral in this community specifically is astronomical.
This is just a slippery slope fallacy. We can agree to not condone literal Nazis without degenerating into calling vast swathes of the political landscape Nazis. Certain ideas simply do not deserve respect or consideration. If you want to have an “honest debate” about race science, I would rather have an “honest debate” about you jumping off a cliff.
That is all fair. Social ostracization or rejection from voters is fine, and in many (if not most) cases warranted.
But I think that is drastically different than calling for all Nazis to be jailed or executed, as some on the left would suggest. It’s a pretty bad loophole, as if there’s anyone or any movement you want to get rid of, all you have to do is call them Nazis, and into the incinerator they go.
Wasn’t a free months ago I would have agreed with that mentality. Now I have work to do to correct myself. https://www.psychologicalscience.org/news/releases/ostracism-hurtsbut-how-shedding-light-on-a-silent-invisible-abuse.html
Aww, does someone need a hug?
Maybe. How many times have you been hugged today?
