You canโ€™t sell asbestos cotton candy at a marketplace of food. Authorities of public health regulate that shit out of our markets. Same public health oversight but with regulatory baseball bats.

No I got it, I was just building on the joke by playing opposition to your sarcasm.

I always like when people in our party are so invested in finding new ways to pwn the fascists in the marketplace of ideas. I'm sure the fascists are doing the same in their 'self defence' classes they are talking about.

Instilling fear on their opposition (violent nazi fascist) and providing safe spaces for immigrants (people of color)

Not a lot, colonial history is treated like a secondary subject, at least it was in my time, maybe it changed a bit now.

The war with Algeria is mostly discussed around the event of De Gaulle doing something with the radio when the fascist fringe of the military rebelled against him for having connected two neurons and abandonned the war. Very lame, no word about the atrocities.

Kind of makes me think of inglorious Basterds. I wonder if thereโ€™s any I inspiration taken from them.

So, the brownshirts, but under a different flag, and different justification, but with equal fervor. Check.

If Stalin just followed a debate class and invited Hitler for a heckin epic rap battle, he wouldn't have had to send the Red Army in

You seem to equate all of the Wehrmacht (which mainly consisted of very young conscripts, many of them malleable, uneducated and never having come in actual contact with people outside of their direct environment) with the horrible atrocities a powerful elite amongst then chose to carry out. If you do, I pity you. If you don't, you might see the nuance that discredits your own strawman fallacy.

Paradox of tolerance... or paradox of intolerance? Point is appeasement doesn't work and at the end of the day you have to be intolerant of the intolerant.

Good point. But then again that's also the point the other side uses.

It is unfortunately a valid point. If one side is acting to physically harm you then politely asking them to stop is no longer sufficient.

Former military, so can't say I do not agree in principle. (Though not based on political stance.)

By all means be my guest and debate the fascists and Nazis who want to eradicate entire races while I will try other ways to defend myself

Yeah I also believe that fascists and antifascists are morally equivalent. I am very smart.

Carry on with the ad hominem. Communism has killed more people than Nazism ever did, LOL.
