So essentially....

If you genuinely just meant to make a point about progress you went about it in a very poor way and didn't express yourself well at all.

I'm not entirely sure how you don't understand that views closer to theirs than ours doesn't mean "they would have killed all of those people if they had a choice."

Canada is closer to the UK than to Australia but both are pretty far away.

I dont see what that has to do with anything.

Are you claiming ww2 vets were all just nazis who didn't reach full nazi maturity?


No, what I'm claiming is they were fighting for their values, many of which were ignorant, racist, homophobic, etc but still better than genocide.

They weren't fighting for gay marriage, the right to choose your own gender identity, equality for all races and a majority of them wouldn't have fought for those values and would likely have actively fought against them. If not violently, certainly in any other way possible.

There were gay nazis.

Also, communists historically thought homosexuality was evidence of late stage capitalism.

There was one prominent gay Nazi and he was purged.

Nope.

Having biases and a lack if understanding is still not even close to being a nazi. Unless you're suggesting they were so intolerant that they'd support the murders of all those people?

Otherwise they're still exponentially closer to us than nazis.

This was an incredibly poor way to make a "we've come so far" post.

How do you think people were so easily swayed to Nazism in the first place? Yeah there was violent coercion and propoganda but people seem to forget they were also commonly held beliefs turned up to 11.

Because if you aren't a leading beacon of progressiveness and liberal thinking you are "close a nazi"?

I didn't say close to a Nazi. What I said was closer to their values than to ours.

How do you think a transgendered person would have been viewed in the 1940s in most of the world? People geared a lot more to the highly anti-gay views of the Nazi regime than to the pro-lgbt views we have today.

I don't even know how this is a hot take. It was more a comment on how far we've come.

You realize that laws aren't an accurate portrayal of public sentiment and that they only change when public sentiment becomes strong enough to necessitate change, right?

So you think the majority of the people in various parts of the world all took issues with these things, but it took 20+ years to even begin to change and longer to actually have a major impact in perceptions of the majority of the public?

Because even in the 80s and 90s gay people were still considered acceptable targets.

But the generation that fought ww2 was the ideal of liberalism and progressiveness?

You realize a ton of those people made up the voters in 2008 right?

You realize homosexuality was still illegal in most places in the world as late as the 60's let alone the idea of gender fluidity and that segregation in the united states didn't end until around the same time?

Why are people always so desperate to place blame in these situations and dole out punishments? Everything is a call for blood.

Why not figure out how both people in this situation came to be in their position and how to avoid it in the future. We don't know why the kid ran, we don't know why the cop shot him. Maybe the kid ran because he was afraid of ending up in this situation in the first place, right or wrong? Maybe the cop fired because he was scared for his life rather than being a hateful racist.

But nah, someone's head has to end up on a pike.

Yeah I know, that's just wha my response would be in this hypothetical scenario.

Edit: but really though, she really does look like a barbie doll. It's uncanny. She has the same hairstyle as the one my sister or cousin had. Can't remember who had it.

I mean, judging from the fact that you felt the need to insult a woman you don't knows appearance over fake insults to impress people or seem big on a message board makes me skeptical that you would be your response in this hypothetical scenario.

They'll say that he didn't legally have the gun so it's bad.

Oh, but it's fine that Kyle Rittenhouse was in violation of the law when he crossed state lines with a gun because he "defended himself."

Fascists and racists don't actually care about being logically consistent.

Or, equally likely, people can acknowledge both cases were wrong and one unfortunately ended in a tragedy.

Even more crazy, people can look at situations on a case by case basis rather than taking a hard line that x is always wrong and y is always right.

Kneeling on someone's neck for 9 minutes straight who is already incapacitated? Overkill, cop should be hit with the full force of the law.

Shooting an armed suspect who resisted arrest when shots have already been fired in the area? Probably more of a grey area.

I mean, obviously having a history of violent confrontation will make you less likely to act violently in a tense situation.

Yeah, agreed. I'll 100% get behind "product of their time" logic for average-joes (as long as we're actually talking about in their time, and not someone in the modern day using "I grew up ages ago" as an excuse, so I guess this guy's not covered anyway), but not people as influential and powerful as that dude.

Actually, maybe not quite 100%, but you know what I mean.


I mean, if anything it's the opposite since it'd be a combination of a product of his time and being extremely out of touch because of his position. How many non-white people do you think the royal family interacted with in any capacity 100 years ago?

I'm not saying give the guy a pass but that's not the best arguement.

In Alien 1, she had long hair and there's a scene with her in underwear. But then in Aliens, she has short hair and there's never a shot of her in underwear. What changed?

Wasn't everyone in their underwear when they woke up from that cryo freeze thing in the beginning?

Would it have been less sexist to have everyone else wake up in their underwear and the two women to wake up in jeans and a sweater?
