    I think that dehumanizing other humans is something to be on the watch for. It doesn’t make you a Nazi to wonder if you’re also morally unsound

      Nazis are human. Cruelty is all too human. The problem is, some people are completely beyond help, and will kill you just for existing, the first chance they get. You have to be ready if that happens, because it might happen sooner than you think.

        Yeah, see the problem, echoed in nearly every philosophy in human history, is that you shouldn’t enact vengeance (preventative or otherwise) because you might be wrong. It’s the same reason the death penalty is immoral.

        As much as I’d like to see some of these fucks at the end of a rope, that doesn’t mean I will be making any blanket statements which assume I always know who the “bad” guys are.

      You aren’t dehumanizing anyone. Nazis did the dehumanizing themselves, who are you to object to that personal freedom of choice.

      It’s also important to keep in mind that intolerance cannot be fought off with tolerance. It’s not possible. You have to not tolerate the intolerant.

        Yes and you couldn’t possibly be wrong about what a nazi is in a world where that term is thrown around more every day.

          I’m gonna say it’s probably most likely the group of fascist filth who cheered when their unelected dictator UNMISTAKABLY seig heil saluted TWICE on stage on DAY FUCKING ONE of this fascist regime.

        And this is the crux of the statement. Social contracts are group moral codes. The Nazis do not adhere to the terms of the contracts and thus are not protected by them.
