I think fascism and racism and a lot of other ideas are dangerous and corrosive for society. Some ideas have been guilty of millions of deaths. By the time you try punishing actions, it will have been too late. Now, the countering I advocate does not imply lack of discussion, or denial of the existance of these ideas, but unchallenged discussion, where these dangerous ideas are the only thing "right" is, IMO, very dangerous. You need people to be able to tackle with them, not protectem them like they are a shriveling violet, but this need to happen in a good frame. I used to believe in a sort of laissez-faire internet community environment, no censorship, but just immunization by exposure. But then I saw my dad get seduced over the internet by a group of deeply illogical individuals and I do not believe this is the right course anymore. > articulate your point of view, not challenge them. I see debating ideas as synonymous with challenging them. How is it different in your perception?
