Re: It's not the issues that are the problem

would you say you totally understand why some nazis tortured and murdered jews? or why some people were okay with lynchings?

I do, actually. It's high school history, right there.

I mean, there's a reason why so many of us invest so much energy in stopping anti-semitism and racism today, y'know? Why are we all sitting around here poking every piece of media with -ism and -phobia sticks? Oh, right, all the propaganda that facilitated the horrific scapegoating that ended with all the murder. And why was this scapegoating needed? Oh, hey, look, systemic economic disparities! (I could continue on, but this can take a while and tracks through thousands of years of history).

We understand these are the roots of the Holocaust and lynchings, and that is why we know to address these issues and stop them before they can end in such tragedy again.



(Also, maybe you should try looking up 'analogy' before you tell people to look up false equivalencies.)
