Wish I could punch Nazis but the whole “problems can’t be solved without police intervention” thing kinda gets in the way. I’m not going to fucking jail because I slapped some ignorant bastard.
the only* solution. ive been coming to understand talking them out of being fascists rarely works if they are that deep into it.
You cannot logic someone out of a position that they didn’t use logic to get to.
Only two options really, play on their emotional reasoning to make them feel the victim of their own beliefs, or you know, make their physical safety in question.
i’m familiar with option 2, violence is straightforward.
but how does option 1 work?
Manipulate them basically. Essentially weaponize the shift that conservatives have when they are personally affected by something. Think McCain turning around on gay marriage because his kid was gay or whatever.
If trump and maga can manipulate using emotion because these people only use emotional reasoning, surely a competent person can weaponize other grievances in the opposite direction.
Just make them more mad about something else that we can all agree on.
Tolerance is a social contract. Those who abide by it are protected by it. Those who reject it are not
You are agreeing with what he just said. It’s a social contract. Those who break the social contract, pedophiles, fascists, et al, are not protected by the social contract.
There’s a saying in my language (Tamil): ‘Even siblings don’t help the way a good beating does’
I can’t believe this hasnt been taken down. This site is chock full of pussies who think this is advocating violence and you should just tolerate Nazi freedom of speech and try to win them over in the “marketplace of ideas.”
Those same people get real salty about “tankies” who they think= anyone left of Biden and not a pacifist.
