Yeah, that’s true!
And then anyone can point out (and of course quote the exact text I’ve said without ripping it out of context and/or rephrasing it in their own words) which of the things I said makes me fascist :)
For some unknown (although deducible…) reason nobody has done that so far though, everyone prefers ad hominem attacks… Hm… It’s almost like actual by-definition fascists call me fascist just to make me look bad but have no arguments to support their claims… Weird, we all know the intellectuals of lemmy would be never do that :)
Yeah, so that’s exactly what I’m talking about, just insults and complete lack of ability to have a normal discussion :(
So, if you have not moved on yet (if you have and/or are not willing to continue the conversation - please still think about it, it’s important for self-improvement) - I have just one question for you. In theory, if you were believing in something that is not actually true (of course this is impossible, as you are clearly intelligently superior than me and your every belief is correct, but let’s pretend otherwise just for the sake of a thought experiment), how would you expect to learn the truth, if you refrain from engaging in a civilized argument and call people that disagree with you trash and fascists?
For example, if you lived a few centuries ago, and believed that Earth is flat (which is a normal thing to believe at that time btw, because that was the consensus of the majority) and you called everybody who says it’s round a fascist (at that time it would rather be heretic, but it doesn’t matter), how do you imagine a scenario where you learn the truth?
Or are you saying that you don’t care about learning the truth?
Yeah, that’s true!

No one wants to waste their time trying to debate with trash. Easier to just downvote and move on.
