Call me from late 1930s Germany and we'll discuss it.
- dredmorbius 5y agoTake it as presumed that a questioner has a direct link to the side of the state or the opposition, or both, of 1930s Germany, and answer the question rather than dodge it.
- GoblinSlayer 5y agoIt's not 1930s Germany, throwing a firebomb at the cop car out of hysteria is not justified.
- dredmorbius 5y agoIt somewhat weakens an absolute assertion "X is not justified" when a response 1) lists numerous current or recent instances in which X is argued as justified by a substantial groiup, and the further response 2) boils down to "now is not one of those times in which X is justified". A chief weapon of both tyrant and bully is to deny their victims and targets the right to self-defence.
