StealThisSheen 10/06/17 8:07:39 PM #390 | Lopen posted... StealThisSheen posted...The analogy may work if you picture nationalism as a country that is somehow one individual, sure. But it doesn't work for those individuals who follow nationalism and believe in it. So then the idea is just as dumb as the analogy? Cool. And you even admit most nationalists would not fall under that. Which means most nationalists are going to fall under something closer to the "I don't want a random dude in the same shopping mall" analogy. Which means a lot of nationalists are going to be more likely to be racist than "pure." --- Seplito Nash, Smelling Like the Vault since 1996 Step FOUR! Get Paid! |

Unlike a house but much like a shopping mall, the chances of you even seeing this random dude are slim. --- Seplito Nash, Smelling Like the Vault since 1996 Step FOUR! Get Paid! |

Right, but they still get lumped in with the right overall. While it may not be the case here, the issue in general with stuff like "alt-left" on the internet seems to be any connection to the "left" at all. --- Seplito Nash, Smelling Like the Vault since 1996 Step FOUR!

Call that a stereotype, I acknowledge that it is, but whatever. What do you consider the politics of the alt-right and alt-left? Because I'm having a hard time thinking "White supremacy" in itself, even without attributing the people/actions to it, isn't worse than whatever the other side is. --- Seplito Nash, Smelling Like the Vault since 1996 Step FOUR!

StealThisSheen posted...Corrik posted...SgtSphynx posted...Corrik, when you make a statement such as "this thing is as bad as this other thing," you immediately are comparing what you use as an example to the worst of the examples for "the other thing" "Both are a problem" is a different argument than "X is just as bad as Y." The latter is an attempt to either make something seem less bad, or imply something else is of that same level, in an attempt to make whatever side you're supporting not stand out so much as "This is bad." Neither are acceptable, yes, that is true. But to go "X is just as bad as Y" is an attempt to try to absolve one side a bit. --- Seplito Nash, Smelling Like the Vault since 1996 Step FOUR!

StealThisSheen 10/05/17 10:50:28 PM #17 | CoolCly posted... from what i understand it's a better star trek than discovery I'd actually agree with this. The third episode of Discovery was probably better than most of the Orville episodes in overall quality, but it really didn't feel like Star Trek. Orville, whatever you think of the quality, screams Star Trek at every turn, and that's what I like about it. I'm not gonna sit here and say it's a great show, but I wanted something campy like the original Star Trek and that's exactly what it is, so I'm entertained by it. --- Seplito Nash, Smelling Like the Vault since 1996 Step FOUR!
