    Oh so shameful that I’m not brainwashed into removing the humanity from people and using identity politics to manipulate arguments and send the brigaide of idiots after people to pretend like my points are valid.

      It doesn’t take much to rustle your jimmies, does it? A few downvotes isn’t ‘brigading’ my dude, that’s just people disagreeing with your clearly unpopular opinions. Buck up, soldier. It’s just internet points, nobody’s nailing you to a cross.

        Defending the opinion that slapping labels on people to dismiss their underlying humanity isn’t “rustling my jimmies,” friend. I call that basic human decency, which there seems to be a lack of.

        Edit: sounds a lot like Nazi ideology really. Those people we slapped labels on are ‘inferior’ => to => don’t deserve to be treated like humans => to => deserve to be exterminated. Really not that far off from calling for extermination…

          I never labelled you as anything. If you feel called out and are defensive by me or anyone talking generally about fascists, that’s on you. I also never dehumanised you. I don’t dehumanise anyone, including fascists. I dislike fascists a great deal, but they’re still human.

          Perhaps you’re getting my comments mixed up with someone else? My Lemmy client is glitching atm so I can’t easily see the context for your comments today, and feel free to quote me dehumanising you, but whilst ‘gg’ may be snarky, it’s not dehumanising nor calling for extermination. Jesus, get a grip.

            There’s no context because I proved my point and the user who was struggling really hard to argue for dehumanizing anyone they wanted to call a Nazi/toxic/bigot deleted their comment. You seemingly took their side and were snarky and told me I should feel shameful for standing up for not dehumanizing people. There’s no basis for a discussion at this point beyond that you seem somewhat self-aware and like I could have had the conversation with you that I was looking for from the original user.

              I’m happy to have that conversation if you’d like. I’ve lost context for my other comment, but I certainly didn’t mean to dehumanise you. Yes, I was snarky, and it may have been the culmination of reading several comments in that thread that skewed pro-fascist (it looks like several were removed), so I apologise if I took it out on your comment in particular.

              I’m always up for intelligent, reasoned discussion. I’m not normally an acerbic bitch, and I apologise for coming off that way.
