    Yikes. Evangelizing about tolerance towards a group that itself preaches the value in your wholesale slaughter is… not great. We can at the same time understand that they’ve been victims of a massive propaganda campaign and revile them for wanting us dead. Wishing for someone to face the consequences of their actions isn’t intolerant, it’s fair.

      You don’t get one without the other. Hate is what they feed on. Attention. Anger. Deprive them of that. Any harm done to them hurts their neighbors, their kids, other locals who didn’t vote, or voted against it, and it’s just… a bad take. Wishing harm on others is just shit-slinging, and I’m sick of it. Reject the hate in your heart.

        You are actually philosophically in the wrong here- you should take a look at the paradox of tolerance.

        A tolerant, just person MUST NOT tolerate intolerance.

          That’s not the same thing. I’m saying, “don’t wish harm on people just because they live in a red state or voted Republican”. You’re saying that means I’m advocating for the tolerance of hate. I am not advocating for that. I’m saying that wishing harm on people is shitty. Of course we should ban bigoted speech from online spaces.
