I am simply saying that this bullshit about “they don’t owe you anything” is complete pablum. If you make a claim, especially an accusation of essentially being genocidal, you are thereby inviting counterclaims. Who gives a shit what instance it’s on? If he denies the Holocaust to his houseguests, that is not particularly better or worse than denying it while he is someone else’s guest because the principle problem is the claim itself.
I don’t know what you want me to do about it I guess?
I’m trying to be practical. You want them to engage with counterclaims, and I’m just saying there is no way to make them do that? I agree with your right to make those counterclaims.
“Look, it’s his instance, he can do blood libel if he wants”
I don’t give a shit what he can do, the question is what he should do. Spouting heinous lies uncritically is bad in any social setting.
If you wanted to convince them of what they should do your methods are strange.
Idk if you think I’m trying to defend their stance or this meme or something, I’m not. I just don’t see the point of all this yelling past each other.

You’re the one who has been wagging your finger about what they do or don’t “owe”
Well I mean it literally. You can’t sue them for an answer on the internet.
You’re arguing based on a stance no one took
Ok?
