True. But it was left wingers who killed millions of Russians in gulags, who committed the Cambodian genocides, the long marches and purges of Maoist communism.

So maybe there’s something to be said for moderation eh?

One side is pure good and does nothing wrong! The other side is evil!

It doesn’t even matter. Hard right and hard left are all just fucking nut job low IQ idiots with different flavours of asshole populism.

Horseshoe theory is as clear as day to anyone not on the extremes.

I don’t think they are all the same, and not all of them cause “offence”.

“using the wrong tone” is by definition wrong, so of course it will cause confusion and irritation.

I’ve only ever heard left wingers claim that compromise is ‘blasphemy’ or that “center politics” is just for people who are too afraid to admit they are right wing.

Fuck, there’s even memes abotu being centrist is being OK with half the holocaust or the KKK.

Your comment is exactly the insane shrill partisan hackery that is the problem.

BAM - just immediately guns blazing accusing the other side of what your side is guilty of.

“matches that of Heinrich Himmler”, you mean the head of the SS and one of the main people behind the holocaust?

Have you ever considered that your life, and life in general would be better if you didn’t have such absurd and shrill opinions?

Obviously it sounds like the kind of thing that is happening.

For example that teacher in Canada who came to school worth enormous fake breasts.

That happened.

If it were that simple, then it would be fine.

But the point is, people just start to label anything that whiffs of a different opinion as “intolerance”.

Fascism was defeated in the UK by some clever jokes and having a monarchy.

The UK helped defeat a couple of fascist Regimes through spending the last power of the Empire on it.

Fascist Regimes were defeated, not the concept of fascism.

The concept of fascism is not defeated through violence, it is through education and debate.

You think some young nazi is going to wake up from a baseball to the head and think “oh wow, I was so wrong about the concept of ‘might makes right’”
