- ethagknight 2y agoI'm well familiar with Popper, you are still drawing a direct line between mean-spirited comments on social media to Totalitarianism as a justification for control of speech for differing worldviews? Many of the mean spirited and politically divisive comments are actually simple observations of what is happening at the time. Things which we are told we are not allowed to say? So therefore, Intolerance is the only rebuttal to intolerance? Argument falls in on itself. (edited for minor cleanup)
