Comment on And nothing of value was lost
MotoAsh@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoI hope one day you come to realize this is as stupid of a take as saying, “violence is bad!” towards someone bloodied ans bruised who just defended themselves from an attack.
At a certain point, someone deserves to be punched in the face. At a certain point, someone deserves to be treated less than a cordial human being.
Ironically, I still agree with, “we need to remember these are human beings”. Yes, yes we do. Because we need to ALWAYS remember the sheer depravity other human beings are capable of. That does NOT mean they deserve respect or even life.
You’re arguing against things I did not say nor imply. I have made no argument here against self defense nor for civility.
I am abiding the paradox of tolerance by not tolerating dehumanizing rhetoric. Because I believe that rhetoric enables fascism.
No, you’re just trying to shame people celebarating bad people no longer being bad people. Congratulations on utterly failing to understand what I said at all.
You are failing to understand the ugly reality of the paradox of tolerance. It is a paradox NOT for where it starts, but for where it ends. If you cannot even celebrate demonstrably horrible ideologies taking losses, then again, you are FAILING the paradox of tolerance.
You need to work on your reading comprehension. I have said absolutely nothing about whether or not to celebrate the death of a nazi, neither does the paradox of tolerance.
Where did I say celebrate death? I said the horrible ideology took a loss. and you claim I’m the one that needs to work on reading comprehension…
Jumping back here to say that
we need to ALWAYS remember the sheer depravity
otherhuman beings are capable of.
Is the only thing I’m saying
Again, just because they are also humna beings does NOT mean they deserve respect or even life.

Self defense is different than drunkenly flattening a pedestrian lmao

I’m speaking to the response to people celebrating the victim happening to be a terrible person, not to drubk driving… pLease pay better attention to what the person I’m responding to actually said.

What if that pedestrian was Donald Trump?
Drunk driving, like, as a rule, is really, really bad. It’s incredibly very awful. … But I’m still gonna pop the shampaign.
