You do not, under any circumstance, gotta hand it to Hitler. The nuance here is that MTG is a piece of shit. We must be intolerant of the intolerant because welcoming them and accepting them society provides an opening for them to spread their anti social beliefs. Before they are welcomed into polite society, they must show that they have changed and are compatible with polite society.
It is ok to have disagreements with others, so long as the disagreements aren't something like, "we disagree if gay people should be allowed to get married". People who hold such anti social beliefs must not be allowed a foothold. People like MTG use the more sane policies as cover to infiltrate and spread their actual beliefs, like Jewish Space Lasers.
You are too focused on the trees to notice that the forest is garbage. The nuance here is not that MTG has some good takes. The nuance here is that MTG will say and do anything to advance her anti social agenda.
My man, if I'm focused on the trees you're sitting there staring at a leaf. I feel like I've been pretty on point about what I'm trying to say here. You can agree with something someone you hate said. If you can't, you're letting emotions take over logic
I am with you
I appreciate it but Im also highly aware that nobody is going to be changing their mind in this discussion. I just hate to see a smart place like Lemmy devolve into what I would call "dumb politics"
Too late, I just got here admittedly but it has been not what I would call intelligent. Better than Reddit. Like hepatitis is better than aids
We are not led, we are disunited, the enemy is organized. Until that changes we lose.
Well said brother
MTG is a politician, not a logician, and people’s responses to her bigoted ass don’t have to be restrained to pure logic.
All you control in this life is your own response to stimuli, MTG isn't making you be illogical, you are.
Well, Hitler wanted every German to do sports and be fit and was against smoking. He was a monster but in those things he was on the right side.
