Eh, seems likely that the person I was arguing with used some sock puppets to downvote me because they think this is Reddit, where that sort of thing matters.
A lot of people I've talked to on Lemmy are actually capable of reasonable debate, this just wasn't one of them.
So you flee rather than fight. You talk about how I'm doing nothing and having no impact and you're running away? I'm so shocked to find out you're a hypocrite and a coward🙄.
Bitch, I'm in Minnesota on the streets protesting and helping my community while ICE attacks us. Where are you? Behind a keyboard dreaming of being the largest mass murderer in history.
You want to kill 231 million people. Hitler killed 12 million. You want to be 19 times worse than Hitler. And you still claim to be better than our opponents? Delusional and potentially psychopathic.
You've stated in this very thread that anyone who either voted Republican or didn't vote are inhuman and should be wiped out. Are you claiming that none of those more than 231 million people are innocent?
The view that evil people are still people? Yes that view is sane. Believing they are something other than human is at best delusional (not sane). At worst it's an excuse for genocide (also not sane).
Hate who you want to hate, I can't stop you, but don't be surprised if you keep getting called out for it.
I get it, you're burnt out. It's exhausting fighting fascists and calling out the growth of extreme right wing views for years while no one listens. I've been there.
Remove yourself from whatever direct action groups or community organizations you're a part of. You'll be no help in changing anyone's mind or gaining the support you need to get the change you actually want if you continue with your current attitude. Alienating potential allies is not the way to grow a movement.
Look at yourself. You're saying that 231 million people aren't people. Do you understand how that looks from a sane perspective? It looks a lot like the folks you're claiming to not support.
I realize none of this is likely to change your mind, I just keep hearing shit like this and this time it set me off. Sorry about that, have a better day.
The difference here is that enforcement of parking violations generates revenue for the police force with minimal paperwork. Tangling with tweakers generates no revenue and a bunch of paperwork. Police forces have never been about protecting the public.
Would you really want to use or sell wife salt? I know the story of Lot predates Kosher laws, but that still seems like it wouldn't be okay in God's eyes.
