    Narrow your argument says the dude who’s made 0 actual claims and instead chooses to do the old “you’re just wrong” approach straight out of the gate.

    Thanks for the empty conversation

      When I was growing up it was never about tolerating intolerance. It was about dragging it out into the sunlight so you could kill it.

      This period of time has not existed in recorded human history point blank period.

      We choose issues and we pursue those issues but that state of affairs where injustices are inherently dragged out into the light has never existed and certainly not in the United States.

      Shit if you’re 60 you’ve lived through literal systemic racism which has existed for what 300 years and still exists. You’d also have lived in a time where a woman needed an adult male related to her to sign so she could get a bank account.

      Take off the nostalgia binders boss.

        Are you living under a rock?

        What do you mean we’ve never dragged out issues into the light so they can be handled?

        Antifa?

        Martin Luther King Jr?

        I’m done with this conversation, I’m losing brain cells by the second

          Nope just on one.

          I mean exactly as I said, you’re blinded by nostalgia.

          Antifa?

          That is certainly a question just not one anyone could answer, what do you have against antifa.

          Martin Luther King Jr

          Famously publicly assassinated for dragging things out into the light, good point…

            You just dodged every counter point I made with unrelated commentary.

            We drag bullshit into the light all the time so we can fucking stomp it out. Just like antifa and other groups do, just like MLK did, just like the fucking Dead Kennedies.

            You’re a really bad troll. Like, I could get more rustled sitting in a Roblox server or the comment section of a hooked on phonics video. I’m sorry you feel the need to hide in chaos and hatred to hide your fear and self loathing.

            See ya later alligator!

      Not sure to what actually he’s refering to but he’s not wrong though. The foundation of ours “western liberal democraties” wasn’t really the ideal we have today about what democracy is or even worst it wasn’t either the preffered regime of a large part of the rulling classes at that time.

      In order to not have an empty conversation :

          I’am pretty sure you get what I mean. I can’t speak in the name of the guy and since he didn’t developed his point or give references I can only assume what he mean’t and I can be wrong, yet the statement in itslef is not wrong.

          I developed a bit more my point and gave you a reference that leads to more references if you find the subject interessting…

          It’s kind of ironic from you to complain about and empty conversation and do the exact same thing right after.

            Can you blame me? I can’t read your mind but your opening fucking statement to me was that you don’t understand what the guy was talking about but you agree with him.

            Would that make you feel confident when talking to someone who’s trying to convince you of their viewpoint.

            Don’t turn your nose up at me when you’re the one who shit on the sidewalk.
