    This word salad is harder to understand than the paradox.

    It doesn’t even matter. You’re not going to convince the nazis that your ideology is internally consistent. And the rest of us who hate the nazis are already convinced.

      We’re not though, there are plenty of groups that have vile hateful ideologies but whom people still think we should be giving space for their views and respect and even airtime.

        That’s true, and not even just hateful. There are plenty of ideologies that just plain refuse to recognize the victims as victims. They’re not filled with hate, they’re filled with total indifference

      edit: the person im replying to unkindly edited their comment to make the following look snarky and rude. i’m leaving it up for posterity but just know it was more meaningful in the original context.

      if you think “tolerance is a contract” is too hard to understand yikes

      if you think it’s not worth it to persuade the moderates who haven’t yet succumbed to nazism that human rights can be protected, fucking yikes

      lukewarm, status-quo supporting comment 👎

        No. That third panel is terribly worded.

        You meant to say whatever is in your comment starting “yep! Pretty straightforward…” but whatever is in the actual image is meaningless and I even knew what you meant.

            “Tolerance is a social contract and those who break the contract do not deserve tolerance. There is no paradox.” ?
