Sorry, mixed up a conversation with someone more reasonable. You’ve been consistent in saying that hitting Nazis is bad, somehow. Because you think the only reason is ‘you don’t like Nazis.’ Nah mate. It’s because Nazis want to commit dehumanizing violence against everyone like me. And a bunch of people who aren’t like me. And they’re not really particular about people like them.

If you insist on seeing that the same way you’d see children bickering over a toy, fuck off. This isn’t about disagreement. This is about basic human dignity and a society safe for people who aren’t fucking Nazis.

There’s a simple principle here that you shouldn’t commit acts of violence against people that have different views to you. Read what I have said again and try to comprehend this. That isn’t about Nazis or Farage or anyone else. It’s a principle. The way you’re replying suggests you don’t understand what a principle is and you don’t have any.

It’s also really weird that you’ve jumped straight to the “but he’s a Nazi” trope. Straight away. I’m not going to defend what Farage has said because he talks a lot of absolute shite but by no stretch of the imagination is he an actual Nazi. Are you able to point to when he’s committed genocide? Can you show me where he’s put people in concentration camps? Do you have evidence that gassed millions of innocent people? Shit… do you have evidence he’s gassed a single person?

Again (because you seem to blanket ignore what I am saying) I do not agree with Farage or what he stands for, but I’m not about to go and assault him over it. It sounds like you’re very comfortable in assaulting someone because you disagree / don’t like / assume they’re literally Nazis.

I’m sorry, but that’s an awful way to live your life.

DiFfErEnT ViEwS! Broken record.

This is not about “like.”

This is not about “disagreement.”

This is not about civil fucking differences.

This is about active threats to millions of people, in the form of public demands for state violence. A modicum of backlash in response to that will never justify your schoolyard tutting.

Do you understand the actual Nazis were marching around doing low-key acts of terrorism for decades before they committed genocide? That shit was the precursor… to genocide. If you don’t recognize fascism until it’s gassing people, that is entirely too late.

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! :'(
