It's not weird to think free speech is important, and that advocating punching "fascists" will immediately be used against the left, by actual Fascists.

Both actual Fascists and "fascists" don't need an excuse to do anything to the left. Not fighting out of fear that the other side will fight back is an inexcusable form of cowardice, especially when that other side has, does, and is promising to commit acts of violence.

Punching anyone regardless of political ideology is completely fine, because physical violence is one of the only ways people can truly express themselves in this modern hellhole of a world. The beast within hungers, and it is preferable to sate its appetite with mere punching before it begins to require more extreme and disturbing forms of violence to satisfy its appetite.

It's been proven with the modern crop of fascists that you really only need to punch them once and they run away crying forever, so there's obviously some merit in careful application of it. Still say they should be pied in the face.

Ytlaya posted:Ah, I see the problem with this then. The issue is that if a politician keeps a bunch of relatively un-challenging and uncontroversial promises, they'll still count as having kept most of their promises. So this data doesn't necessarily validate the idea that politicians can be relied upon to keep any particular promise, since they generally make a bunch of other promises that are relatively easy to keep. My interpretation, which I think largely agrees with yours, is that the article's thesis amounts to 'the public is too cynical about whether politicians keep their promises.' And while they're right to be cynical because of how often 'good faith attempts ' at compromise falter in a polarized polity, or what the actual policies' implementations ultimately look like, etc. ...the divergence between the public's perception and the number 538 came up with is enough to suggest that people should be more optimistic, in general. Now, does that article serve as good evidence that Hillary will keep her promises that matter to people who might be skeptical about her? I don't think there's a defensible way to interpret it in that way. From what I understand, you don't either -- though maybe we disagree on exactly why. Whether we agree or not, it seems to fall under something you've been posting about, where centrists who see themselves as educated, with 'evidenced based answers, either mis- or re-interpret data to match their narrative.

I remember back in high school my history teacher would teach that the white people in the 1950s and 1960s who were protesting school integration weren't really racist because they weren't mad that black people were going to schools, but that the government was "taking their rights away" ("they" being the white people). I'm mad I never responded to that and always thought what would be the best thing to say.
