    Well I am taking what you are saying as an implied superior moral position. That engaging with anyone and everyone is ethically or morally superior to not. It follows that one who does not consent to that standard is somehow “doing it wrong”. It’s like some internalized guilt over exercising your own agency to ignore or block people. Wild.

        Not having to talk to Nazis doesn’t mean you’re in an echo chamber. I hope that clears up the misunderstanding here.

            I have repeatedly stated on multiple occasions how much of a not Nazi I am

            “I have Jewish friends”

            Dude this is pretty close to parody and I will need to make this part of a standup routine.

            Even when I accidentally got mistaken as KKK for Halloween (I was in a white lab suit with an 🏖️ corp badge but took my hood off), I did not have to profess with words. I simply stripped the costume immediately off with shameful realization. My actual Jewish friend laughed at me.

            Like I agree this isn’t happening in a vacuum, the context is you defending a guy doing a Nazi salute. People not subjecting themselves to whatever brain rot brought you to that conclusion is not “living in a bubble”, it’s having a healthy relationship with reality.

                It’s become abundantly clear to me that you are set in your ways and you see nothing wrong with it so I’m not gonna waste any more energy trying to have any sort of meaningful dialogue.

                As we say on the Internet, every accusation is a confession. At least you understand there’s a hueristic to identifying people not worth conversing with, and for most of us defending Nazi stuff is that heuristic.
