The ability to strip away the title of "human being" is exactly what they are arguing for. You just have different criteria.

    this is as stupid of a take as saying, “violence is bad!” towards someone bloodied and bruised who just defended themselves from an attack.

    Self defense is different than drunkenly flattening a pedestrian lmao

    You're arguing against things I did not say nor imply. I have made no argument here against self defense nor for civility.

    I am abiding the paradox of tolerance by not tolerating dehumanizing rhetoric. Because I believe that rhetoric enables fascism.

    You need to work on your reading comprehension. I have said absolutely nothing about whether or not to celebrate the death of a nazi, neither does the paradox of tolerance.

    This entire conversation is on a post about the death of a nazi. "the horrible ideology took a loss" sure sounds like "the horrible ideology" of nazism "took a loss" of the death of one of their own.

    To go back to the point I was making in that comment, where did I say anything about celebration?

    You are right. If we exclude any population from rehabilitation, we exclude ourselves.

    Until they are rehabilitated though, I will treat them as maggots. Being human does not automatically grant you untouchability for your actions. It doesn't absolve you of your sins. It does not mean anyone around you must tolerate your continued existence.

    No, I can't blame anyone for visiting harm on Nazis. But that is a temporary solution. If we are to nullify supremacist ideologies, we must eacape survival of the fittest world views. Any ideology that requires violence will be surpassed by the next strongest, including the ideology that kills Nazis and white supremacists.
