Huzanko posted:My whole point is that if you want to enact positive change then you need to make the claim that certain things are objectively moral in the way that the US constitution - even though it was written by slave owners - claims that humans are endowed with certain inalienable rights. These are claims we can and should make and not play stupid semantic games. You're the one playing stupid semantic games by saying that we must say that good morals are objective morals, when the word "objective" doesn't loving mean "good" quote:Well, nothing is objectively moral so it's OK if I hate black people and think the holocaust was pretty good! Yes, that's what I'm saying, that's my argument, a Jew claiming the holocaust was pretty good.

Josef bugman posted:"People starving to death in the street is wrong because it is a moral duty to care for those who are less fortunate and if you disagree you are wrong". "People starving to the death in the street is wrong because you might end up being one of those people" is a better argument without bringing in weird concepts of morality. Like, a society can only be judged by how it treats its weakest members kind of thing.

fallenturtle posted:So you don't accept her explanation to why she doesn't consider this group white supremacists? I'm going to borrow part of another post in a different thread where this is being discussed because I think it cuts to the heart of the issue: lornekates posted:Her points about their members are "Sure, there was one guy who posted holocaust denial poo poo, but he was banned for being TOO fashy" and also "this group saw what happened at Charlottville and said 'we need to rethink'". I think my read on that is way different than her read. She's giving them the benefit of the doubt.

No one is calling her a far right sleeper agent, Christ. Not in this thread, at least, I can't speak for Twitter idiots.

Linear Zoetrope posted:Wait, I'm confused about how this point is wrong as you presented it unless it's dumber in context (likely). I mean, "because black people are criminals" is racist, but white flight was/is absolutely a form of soft segregation used to escape from federal desegregation orders (feds forcing you to integrate your school with black and brown people? Take your ball and go to a new section of town with its own school district!) done because of the perception that POC would increase crime rates/ruin schools/cause miscegenation/whatever. *cough cough* DETROIT *cough cough*

Josef bugman posted:I know this intellectually, I just don't emotionally. Really? Cause whenever these stories come out, I react very emotionally. It's loving disgusting poo poo and it shouldn't be tolerated on any level in our society. And all this counter arguing I see all around (not that I'm accusing you of doing this, mind you) of "But what if we go too far and outlaw flirting? How can men possibly expect to date without being creepy?" is equally as disgusting.

Monglo posted:I thought an interesting discussion on the merits of arguments made in the Destiny's debate and general arguments against pedophilia might be had, but if only responses people here are capable of are personal attacks, then forget about it. Literally no one personally attacked you unless you consider Goon Danton posted:This is not a loving road you want to go down, dude. an attack.

Goon Danton posted:It's an awkward situation for people who defend pedophilia, because "are you seriously defending pedophilia right now?" absolutely is a personal attack. It just happens to be an extremely cogent one. To me, "personal attack" means an insult, and getting all snitty about being "personally attacked" because a few people asked you questions is super loving thin skinned.

Ohhhhhh my god shut the gently caress up about Dark Souls. Here's something relevant to the thread: http://www.bbc.com/news/technology-42232482 quote:Google will dedicate more than 10,000 staff to rooting out violent extremist content on YouTube in 2018, the video sharing website's chief has said.
