Current Events > Post here if you're against punching Communists

(+) Yeah! (+)

So I can ignore you.

Communism only leads to one thing. You may be okay with waiting until they kill your family to do something about it, but Im not.

85-100 million people.

EIGHTY FIVE to ONE HUNDRED

MILLION

I agree that anyone supporting Communism in 2017 is an idiot, but I don't support assaulting non-violent people just for their ideological beliefs.

actually your post is a deflection

I never said it was wrong to punch a nazi

but it seems you are pretty quick to defend commies responsible for the deaths of over 100 million people

why do you support that?

you shouldn't punch them but you should cut all ties with them because they're awful people

I'm more and more supporting the idea of ionization of this board where so many people are on ignore for being dumb that gradually over time there's two boards with two groups of people talking over the ghosts of ignored accounts.

That's the only way I see this working. Apparently we've got toddlers as full adults in society now and I've already started padding out my ignore list for this board because these are not functional members of society. I realize this is a satire thread, but organically that's the outcome of this for any sane person.

no, I do not support unjustified punching of a communist. unless the communist was coming at you with a weapon, you are legally required to leave them alone

idk
it is toddlers after all who aren't mature enough to take disagreement and respond to it by either throwing a fit or putting their fingers in their ears

or is that what you meant?

I mean the 'it's my way or the highway' mentality. Like that other guy who was weaponizing his own attention 'you don't give me exactly what you want you go on ignore'. Fine then. Those are the terms being set. There's no discussion in these situations, and gradually over time when these interactions are played out and more people choose 'highway' you'll end up with two separate boards. The toddlers set the terms. Sane people pick the highway. Every time I encounter that from now on I'm picking the highway. The beauty of that is it ends up in a complete wash of a discussion, so whoever had more ground at the beginning maintains it when it's apparent there's no discussion to be had. Sane people aren't the ones that need to come to the bargaining table on this, so it's just ironic when it ends up that way.

if you can't beat a nazi or a communist in an argument then you suck

communism probably has a little better time being argued back because you can't really no true scotsman nazis

or I guess you can in the opposite direction (i.e. "They aren't REAL nazis and aren't dangerous)

but the point is, no fricken violence. We have police for that reason.

Go read some Kantian ethics and realize why its bad for people to start punching those they disagree with.

well yeah

if they can't handle a logically constructed argument with supporting source being thrown at them, they might as well ignore everyone but those who agree with them

not talking about nazi punch arguments because I haven't entered any of these, but ironically capitalism vs. socialism I think made some people mad enough to ignore me or stalk me calling me a shitposter

ofc they couldn't counter argue, they have to resort to other tactics

not that I am always right, but on that particular subject I noticed some users doing that

socialism and to that matter communism is a delicate topic on CE oddly enough

No, I don't think people should punch communists. In fact, I like Bakunin.
