The common scene I see is that the majority of <insert ideologically identifying term> don’t rejoice in other’s misery but rather do rejoice in pointing out how much those others deserve it.
- falcolas 4y agoFWIW, I don't believe that's actually a commonly held belief. I believe that's <insert ideologically identifying term> leadership's dogma created to keep the other group(s), well, other. To prevent their followers from reaching out and looking for common ground.
- abduhl 4y agoThis is a comforting thought for people who adhere to a certain group’s dogma but do not want to take responsibility for that group’s actions. It’s like how some people “love Russians” but “hate Putin.” At a certain point your participation in a group signals your acceptance of the leadership’s dogma.
- falcolas 4y agoHolding some of the same ideals as a group is not participation in that group. And with that, I'm finished with this particular thread. Have a great day. :)
