I can’t really think of a reason for that as Reddit is hated somewhat equally by “both” sides of the spectrum. It’s just something I find interesting.

          Let’s also not forget that the hate is justified and amplified by their religion.

        well the right thinks anything that makes you not exactly like them is a crime. Including thinking and having different opinions and ideas. Therefore they do adhere?

        I think you might be leaning towards the paradox of intolerance and the recent solution for it which has become very popular.

        A tolerant society must be intolerant of intolerance.

        This philosophical concept seems paradoxical but actually it’s been solved via another philosophical concept. The social contract. Hate speech in almost every instance violates the social contract thus putting those who engage in it in violation of the social contract. It is not being intolerant at that juncture to remove that person from society. It is not intolerance but a violation of contractual obligation.

        And funnily enough, these bigots nearly always hail from “the land of the free”. Where “free” apparently only applies to their own ability to freely attack others and try restrict their freedom.

        You seem to be assuming a lot of things. I only called out the hypocracy of calling out the things the “right” is doing, but willfully ignoring what the “left” is doing. And you seem to be very aggressive, where there is no need to be. I do however agree with you on people needing to mind their own business. That would be the simplest thing. If you want to preach intolerance then go ahead. But people are becoming so damn polarized that it’s difficult to remain in the centre without being accused of going to either side of the spectrum. You do realize that being a centrist is a thing, yes? You do realize that one does not necessairily need to align with either the left or the right side of the political spectrum, yeah? You can kindly fuck off yourself.

      Did someone say agree with me or you’re racist? I didn’t see that anywhere. All I saw was calling a goose a goose, or in this case, a fascist party fascists.

        Calling the right leaning crowd a hateful minority while ignoring the fact that the left leaning side does the same is hypocritical.

          Someone saying that right-wingers are hateful bigots is now somehow the same as declaring trans people universally pedophiles, refusing them medical treatment, and openly advocating for their extermination.

          Yes, the conservatives in the “west” have started calling for a cleansing of Trans people out of society, but I guess Holocaust 2 electric boogaloo (and yes I am very consciously using that because the Turfs are now openly working together with Neo-Nazis to the aims of removing the “evil manipulative group trying to destroy our culture/race/sexual orientation”) is equivalent to someone saying bad words bad that conservative group…

            I wasn’t aware that things in america have gotten that bad. I always heard that people have been divided, but it’s really eye opening to see just how much. What can be done to combat extremist views?
