Comment on Hexbear federation megathread
robinn2@hexbear.net 1 year agoWhat is extremism? Large deviation from the status quo. What is the status quo? Well it’s perfectly fine for people to defend the U.S. despite it being the inspiration for Nazi Germany; it’s perfectly fine for people to defend NATO despite its support for Nazis/fascism [1] [2] [3] and its terrorization of the third world; it’s perfectly alright to defend the “democratic” bombing and starvation of Afghans by the U.S.; it’s right in the realm of acceptable opinion to love cops as they kill ~1,000 poor and black people and brutalize their families; it’s respectable to justify sanctions to starve people in Cuba and the DPRK; so on and so forth, these are the realm of acceptable opinion. It is okay to oppose some of these things lightly of course, but total opposition is too extreme, and you are met with the nonsense of “extremes on both sides.” Nevermind that equivocating Nazism with left “extremism” (even in the most drastic cases) is recognized as a form of Holocaust denial, centrism can never be challenged.
You argue Hexbear users should be treated the same as Nazis? Very well, then Hexbear users can roam free and comments saying Hexbear users are bad should be deleted. This is your instance lmao. Get better arguments.

Or, you know, you can be against all of that? One can be against fascists on both the left and right at the same time.
