Theocracy is bad and neo-Nazism is bad. Trump had dinner with Nick Fuentes, who 1) is an open anti-semite, 2) praises Adolf Hitler, and 3) calls for white ethnonationalism.
I don't need to write a treatise to explain why this is bad.
- ahmeneeroe-v2 2y agoYou don't need to write the treatise because the era of that kind of "logic" winning elections is over. (ie the left being able to label whole political movements as bad because certain bad people associate themselves with it)
- llamaimperative 2y agoI didn't label a whole movement as bad, ya goofball. Well except for neo-Nazism and theocracy, the latter of which is explicitly counter to the US Constitution and the former is... well... you can defend it if you'd like. I said extreme ideologies (including the two I mentioned) are bad, and there's an asymmetry in their representation and proximity to power on the different ends of the political spectrum.

- ahmeneeroe-v2 2y agoyeah so you're doing the same thing. the era when people fall for the rhetorical trick of labeling a group as [really bad thing] in order to make them not want to associate with that group is over. you'll just have to compete on ideas instead of word games now.

- llamaimperative 2y agoWell it’s apparent at this point literally anything is acceptable so long as they flatter his sensitive ego.
- throaway89 2y agoI would suggest the opposite (inverse?): anything is acceptable to Nick Fuentes as long as it increases his chances of getting laid.
