I know this is a joke, but if this is genuinely how someone thinks, then it so self-absorbed and narrow minded to not be able to step out of your own mindset.
The comment implies absolute good/evil and that people are knowingly acting evil. The people you don't agree with do have consistent moral principles that they are working with (however misguided or skewed they may be). I can't stand racist/sexist people either, but if you can't see how these people are worried that "woke" people are destroying their view of society and threatening their morals, then you won't really be able to engage them to change their minds. This entrenched thinking is why all discourse is now just shouting matches at each other.
I think what's more depressing about all of this is how many people agreed with you...yuck
And what's most uplifting is that of all the replies expressing disagreement, yours was the only disrespectful one
Well, not everyone is going to be openly vocal about a shitty take. That's a personal choice anyone can make. Just like I chose to express my disagreement about that original pointless comment, about my disappointment at anyone who upvoted it...and now at you too for, I'm guessing, being one of those who also upvoted that.
Am I supposed to feel bad about someone who's playing the devil's advocate for racist people? Lmao
