<Snipped quote by Ace of Hearts>
I mean, it wasn't too long ago that supporting gay rights and non-white rights were seen as ignorance. There was a time where African Americans were actively being denied their rights to free speech by those who assumed they were just trash.
The entire point of the 1st amendment is to try and prevent things like this from happening (it still happens regardless, showing that it only really matters when people enforce the constitution) because people are not objective.
I'd argue you'd be enabling more civil rights to be taken away, out of a misguided belief that you could actually destroy an ideology by preventing people legally from talking about it.
I know, because supporting the rights for non rich straight white men to exist/have agency is the exact same thing as supporting the rights for people to believe that other groups are sub-human and shouldn't be allowed to interbreed with their precious genes? Are you fucking serious right now?
It's this kind of willful blindness to the intentions and consequences of these beliefs that create these fucking clusterfucks. Nazi ideology is one hate, and that will lead to violence when allowed to, as shown yesterday, when a woman died in a white supremacist terrorist attack.
It has no validity. These sort of extremist ideologies lead to the holocaust, jim crow, imperialist japanese expansion, and your own country's destruction via.
Do you find this to be an acceptable risk? For extremist thought to go from the shadows and straight into unchallenged general acceptance? Because it's "wrong" to make extremist ideologies illegal?
I will not tolerate the people and ideas that would place a pink triangle on me and send me to a fucking camp,
if they could. It doesn't matter if they can't, either. it's extremely disrespectful for anyone to insinuate that I, or anyone else who would be the victims of these hateful philosophies, should have to 'logical debate' with these maniacs.
fuck you.
