Nice strawman.

My point is that people seem quite happy to condone violence because they don’t like the victim. Are you able to comment on that?

‘You just don’t LIKE it’ is dismissive horseshit and you need to stop.

We are talking about fascists.

There are very specific reasons people are okay with these bastards catching projectiles to the face.

What you’re advocating is violence towards anyone that you don’t like. That isn’t what a just society should condone.

Fascist or not, they need to be defeated by words and the law not by fists and violence. What do you think is the end logic of what you’re saying? When the actually fascist elements of society start doing the same thing as you’re advocating and start to assault people they disagree with?

I’m not sure why this is controversial but yet it appears that it is. 🤷‍♀️

“YOU JUST DON’T LIKE IT!” remains dismissive horseshit, and you need to fucking listen.

You’re pushing a slippery-slope fallacy… against stopping Nazis. Fuck right off with it.

These assholes are already doing violence. That’s what makes them Nazis. That’s why we’re talking about more than coming together to sing kum-ba-yah. They don’t “disagree” with people. They’re dehumanizing anyone who was born wrong. Do you understand the difference?

Create post

General Discussion for politics in the UK.
Please don’t post to both !uk_politics@feddit.uk and !unitedkingdom@feddit.uk .
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric politics, and should be either a link to a reputable news source for news, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think “reputable news source” needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread. (These things should be publicly discussed)

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

!ukpolitics@lemm.ee appears to have vanished! We can still see cached content from this link, but goodbye I guess! :'(
