OMFG do the the people who use the, âby saying x, youâre just as bad as themâ arguments understand just how foolishly idiotic they sound?
Look, if anyone thinks that calling antivaxxers and anti maskers âDarwin awardâ contestants makes me âjust as badâ as a Trump supporter, then they need to get off the internet and maybe go out into the real fucking world.
Ordinarily Iâd just block & forget about asinine comments like this, but this kind of childlike morality is as widespread as it is harmful.
Just for clarityâs sake, letâs recap: by and large, majorities of Trump supporters are endangering others, they are refusing to get vaccinated, they are refusing to wear masks, they are refusing to socially distance in crowds, they are rabidly pro-police, deeply racist, and they routinely support/vote for racists, misogynists, Islamophobes, and much worse âŚ.. got all that?
Now on the other hand, by simply using âmeanâ words against the people who intentionally, directly and indirectly, make life for meâa Black man in Americaâincreasingly dangerous year after year after year,⌠by calling them Darwin Award losers, I have somehow become a de facto Trump supporter, and also a fascist. Do I have that right??
Like, there is sO much more that I could say, but Iâm not tryna write a book here.
Itâs just such trash reasoning. And it shows more compassion for willfully ignorant Trump supporters than it shows for the people who they target with their hateful actions , votes, and legislation.
