I had plenty of voting power to turn this gray, I used a ONE percent flag.
Fall on your sword, make some more posts about this person no one was watching! Way to go..
You can watch it happening right now. You turned this mostly ignored racist into a victim that some now feel the need to protect.
Who is propagating hate? You are...
I'm trying to figure out your logic. By singling hateful posts out, I am helping to give credence.
Perhaps I got what I want. They are generally hidden
You think anything can be said without consequence because words do not cause harm? Interesting concept; one that has been proven to be false time over.
Look you can take Ghandi's urine drinking philosophy at heart; I do not have too.
You see I come from a history of pain and I know what SILENCE on subjects breed. Now I don't like to assume, but I'll take a leap of faith and guess you or your family has never been the victim of false blood libels.
"If you don't stand for something, you will fall for anything"
I see you take your lines from MSNBC, while calling others globalist. I don't have any more energy for this. (What we focus on grows)
Virtue signals and all,... carry on. I'm sure there will be more love and peace in the world when you are done. Do what you like, it's your account and your stake.
thanks.. and yes I drink the kool-aid MSNBC blah blah.
I'm pretty right wing.. I just don't march with the Klu Klux Klan, or the Farakhan's either. They cannot just say whatever they want with their 1 MILLION MAN MARCH... no idiots with pitch forks there.. (and they happen to be black ;) Good luck letting them say or do whatever they want in the name of freedom of speech. - oops/
I think speaking works, challenging bad ideas, is a good move. I think conversations work. I think living and working together toward goals works well. People who work together often see each other's strengths and weaknesses with more acceptance. These things are known and used to control our behavior each day. Who's great idea was it to Hate Hate?
I think silencing and meeting hate with hate is a bad strategy. I only ask that you pay attention to whether or not when you try to tell someone they are wrong... (like I did here) How it just makes people argue harder. My mistake. I should have ignored this.
I really do know your heart is in the right place and I shouldn't have been rude. I kicked this conversation off like this, and I did exactly what I was asking you not to do.
that's sweet and self reflective - which I really respect.
However, perhaps your perception of hate vs hate is what is to be challenged. I would prefer water with fire. Now I know fire with fire is the general term, but water kills as well. Basically I have tried to use facts in many of my arguments (with hateful people), and they generally do nothing self-reflective other than what their emotions are telling them. You cannot reason with such individuals. This then VERY sadly forces people to take stand in life. Perhaps it's akin to killing a murderer; but we don't have to enjoy it and make it as QUICK and humane as possible.
I politely disagree. We can let it drop.
