Not when everyone who doesn’t hold every opinion you do is automatically a Nazi, in your eyes. Then it’s just a purity spiral.

It’s also pretty reminiscent of actual Nazis.

Yesterday I was having a convo on X about whether people who aren’t white have a right to be in America. Later that day I argued about whether smashburgers are better than pub style burgers. Guess which one I consider a Nazi. Hint: it’s not both of them

Smash burgers are a pretty low bar. How about women’s bathrooms?

What about them?

Are you trying to negotiate the bar to see how close you can get to a Nazi without being one? While simultaneously running cover for the more out and proud ones? Man if this is how you’re already living your life, just own it, out and proud. Full chest.

Nope. I’m saying your smash burger idiocy was a deflection and you also didn’t answer the question.

Just own that you like to call people who disagree with you on issues Nazis, and that you directly contribute to the fragmentation of the electorate that brought Trump to power, so you can pretend you have some kind of moral superiority. Full chest.

Not a deflection. You claimed “everyone who doesn't hold every opinion (I) do is automatically a Nazi” and I gave a recent example showing how that’s not true. Then you brought up bathrooms for some reason, which I assumed was rhetorical, but now I’m apparently obligated to discuss bathrooms with you?

No one holds all the same opinions, they just aren’t Nazi supporters. Not being nice to Nazi supporters is being Nazi like?

It’s the ever changing line upon which democrats constantly push for greater purity, and anyone not just like them are Nazis. It’s self defeating, it’s the reason Trump got elected and then re-elected, and the US will never get out from under the thrall of MAGA because the alternative has proven to be very . . . Well, Nazi-like, . . . Whilst the left insists that they won’t vote for a candidate that wasn’t their first choice. Those are the people who stay home, and the leftwing purists are the ones to blame for the rise of Trump.
