    Reminds me of the recent “debates” about not dehumanizing Nazis…

    No, you fucking losers, Nazi’s do not deserve respect!

    If someone’s aim is to FUCKING KILL YOU, the last thing I want to hear from self-rightous buffoons is, “but you might hurt their feelings!”

    Claiming it’s “bad” to call bad things bad because it biases others against that thing… is also fucking dumb tone policing. It’s GOOD when bad things have “bad” associated with them!! It’s GOOD to call the people that push for bad things also bad… because they ARE bad people.

        Exactly.

        It’s like the Golden Rule version of the Paradox of Tolerance. If someone would demonstrably never extend you the courtesy, then you should have no obligation to extend said courtesy first.

        Only a fool attempts to welcome an invading army in.
