Its like when a couple of nazis show up at your bar and you dont through them out. Welp, now you're a nazi bar.
The real world requires proactive protection from these people. That's reality of where we are today.

- gropo 1mo agoThat's the political crux of this thread.
- kennywinker 1mo agoIncluding people who are violently un-inclusive is just being violently un-inclusive with an extra step. Like, there are a lot of world views and opinions that can be included without damaging the space, but nazism is very clearly not one of them. Fascism and the authoritarian forms of communism also fall under this heading.
- ivanmontillam 1mo ago> Including people who are violently un-inclusive is just being violently un-inclusive with an extra step. Respectfully, that doesn't make any sense.
- kennywinker 1mo agoHow does it not make sense? Like take politics out of it for a sec. You own a bar. There’s one customer who comes in every night and drinks five shots and then sucker-punches a random other person in the bar. Sure, you’re not violently assaulting one of your customers every night - but functionally, you have created a space where someone gets hurt every night. The first time it happens it’s not your fault, but the 20th time? Come on.
