      Quick to judge, lacking empathy, who does that sound like to you? Really hope you can find enough peace to try being a good part of this greater whole again man.

      “There’s a bad man in everyone, no matter who we are. There’s a rapist and a nazi living in our tiny hearts. Child pornographers and cannibals, and politicians too. There’s someone in your head waiting to fucking strangle you.”

      Great song. Best of luck out there.

        It sound like YOU have a Nazi living in your heart with how hard you are trying to defend them in this thread.

          Think the point of the song is that we all do, and acknowledging and attempting to transcend that is crucial to being “good”. It’s being very clearly demonstrated here that with enough fear and enough hurt many otherwise normal people will resort to paying forward the bigotry and violence inflicted on them. Can you point to where I have in any way defended nazis, rather than advocating against the very behaviors that make their “movement” so reprehensible?

          Wow, that’s great. Sounds like you’re pretty dang pure, far removed from the flawed individuals you wish death on. A model human, some kind of ‘ubermensch’

              I’m upset that people hate, period, and don’t believe a reasonable person could actually see anything I’ve said as supporting fascism in any way. You’re directly advocating for that same ideology with a different target, and insinuating I must be one of Them for having a problem with it.

                  Yeah, but not exclusively! Even there tolerance is framed as an ideal, and rationale as the primary defense against intolerance. It’s also about how to handle movements in a society, not who to call help for. Have you ever studied the Wheel of Samsara?
