I have no desire to reason with Nazis, I believe the only kind of good Nazi is a dead Nazi, and I genuinely believe it is my moral duty to punch a Nazi on site. But I don’t have to pretend their not human to do that. Evil is a human thing. No other animal does that. You have to recognize it for what it is and root it out. Calling them not human doesn’t help anything.
Nazis are actual real people. It doesn’t do anybody any good to deny that human beings are capable of great evil. It only seeks to further distance ourselves from our shared history of violence and doom us to repeat it. Talk like that is exactly what leads to Nazis in the first place
I like your edit. That’s something that SHOULD be criticized.
I didn’t say that she deserves a statue. She’s a horrible person. I said that you don’t have to moralize. Her being a woman that “spread her legs”, as you put it, has NOTHING to do with any of this. It’s just a thing you thought would be a low-hanging insult.
I would imagine it’s because it hasn’t been reported on in the U.S.
Gross slut shaming vibes. You can criticize someone without moralizing, you know?
Now that’s a name I’ve not heard in a looong time. Long time…
Yes, absolutely agreed
If I just let my dog go out and be free and wild, he would be dead within a week. He’s 12 lbs, doesn’t know the difference between poison and food, and thinks he’s bigger than most predators. There’s no such thing as a Dachshund in the wild. We have been domesticated by dogs and cats just as much as we have domesticated them. Our whole cultural trajectory exists because of that. The story of humanity is the story of domestication. You’re deluded.
As an American, I can assure you, there absolutely was a deliberate and systemic call to eradicate Native Americans. They were (and often still are) completely dehumanized (there was a period of time in America where bounty hunters could be paid for “Genuine Indian Scalps”. It’s also still happening, it just seems like nobody cares anymore.
Take the border for example. It’s the biggest thing that nobody will shut up about. The border. Border. Border. Border. But what do they fail to mention every single time? Who’s home are they building that wall through? Who’s land is that?
The Spanish were appalled by some of Columbus’s actions, sure, but withing 50 years that cranked that dial up! Or did you think all of those missions and plantations built themselves
Ugh 🙄 internet “philosophers”. I’ll see you in the front lines, dude. We’ll have a good laugh about how unnecessary this argument was once we’re there
