The right-wing playbook in action. It’s really interesting (and evil) how their rhetoric evolved to take advantage of the weaknesses of modern liberalism. The reason we shouldn’t accept their speech into just any space is because, pardon my French: it isn’t on the fucking level. They’re not trying to win a rational debate. They’re just trying to win, through whatever means necessary including exaggerating, lying, and bullshitting.
I am probably preaching to the choir here but if any of y’all haven’t gone through it, the whole right-wing playbook series on Youtube is pretty much mandatory viewing at this point and definitely made me abandon my ‘we should debate them in the marketplace of ideas’ stance.
We’ve (collectively) voted Nazis into being in charge…
If you think they’re going to let us vote them out again, I don’t know what to tell you. They for sure won’t. There’s a decent chance Trump cheated his way into office this time as it is.
The second amendment was our final check and/or balance. It seems insane to oppose it in the face of fascism.
Why would you want to be disarmed when Nazis are running the country, AND HOW IS THAT BETTER OR DIFFERENT THAN THE 2016 TOLERANCE YOU’RE REFERRING TO???
No, I don’t want violence or murder or anything else. At some point though we may want Nazis even less.
