Yes, sorry. Nowadays I'm more and more concerned about the sincerity of people seemingly genuinely asking "questions". You know... Supremacists aren't always open with their views, and I know for a fact that the non-open ones tend to ask toxic questions and say things that implicitly push such extreme political views. I hope you're not one of them.
- s1artibartfast 4y agoI wasn't asking any questions, I was providing answers. I don't particularly believe in "toxic" questions, but don't like beating around the bush either. I find the best way to deal with either is to cut through the crap and give an honest answer, as I tried to do here. Extremists hold some contrarian views that are true, and some that are grossly untrue. Extremists only benefit when the mainstream opposition denies the views that are true. This is the primary conversion tactic. extreme example: A White supremacist says the sky is blue and finds someone Mainstream to argue that it is red. A third party listens to the argument and sees the extremists making points about the color of the sky and wonders if they are right about white supremacy too. This thread fits that mold perfectly. Some argues that hate crimes are published differently in the media depending on the race of the perpetrators. My answer is: yeah, so what?
