We’ve Been Over This


We’ve been over this before. Nazis, white supremacists, white nationalists or whatever euphemistic name they care to give themselves, are the bad guys. There is no debating it. There are not two sides to the matter. They possess no redeeming quality. No matter how great their right to speak, they do not deserve to be heard because everything they have to say is vile. It is the duty of every American to stop this scum whenever it bubbles up. 

We were once in unanimous agreement about that in this country. Your grandparents sure as hell knew it. If you disagree with that now — if you want to claim there is an equivalence of any kind between Nazis, on the one hand, and people who oppose them on the other — I don’t care to know you and don’t want to hear from you.

​And you should probably examine why you think such stupid fucking things in the first place.
