So you would prefer that they congregate in their own private echo chambers, rather than come to a place with differing ideals where their own convictions could be challenged? How can we ever bridge the gap if we push people into their own bubbles?
- giraffe_lady 3y agoYes! Holy shit yes! They are not a project for you to work on they are a force to be stopped. Debating nazi policies in public forums is already a win for the nazis. You don't debate people out of these views you prevent them accomplishing them. Bridging the gap is some liberal bullshit. If they want to repent and rejoin polite society the path is well established. These people will kill you if you stand in their way. The fact that you don't perceive that as a real threat means you are not standing in their way. Debating their talking points in their venue of choice is not standing in their way; you tell because they're happy to do it.
- hiatus 3y agoI think you take it for granted that people are so set in their ways without realizing that all ideology is on a spectrum. Can you convince the most hardcore ideological adherent? Likely not—but someone on the fence can be swayed. And before you cast aspersions on fence-sitters, remember that Nazis were regular German citizens first. Racists aren't born, they are molded. I don't anticipate I'll change your mind but I think it's worth stating nonetheless.
- giraffe_lady 3y agoRight, so let's allow them in here and "debate" them, giving them as many chances as possible to make more racists.
