The Hypocrisy is the Point
There is always fine print that says, “but only for us.”

Something I've been thinking about for years and needed to write. Stop debating right wingers and ceding any ground to them. Call them out for what they are: unrepentant fascists. They bask in their own rank hypocrisy as a power play. Instead, focus your energy on making a better world without them.

The failure here is that step one isn’t “grab your hammer.”
Here's how to disable Ring's creepy Search Party feature
Ring's Super Bowl ad alerted many people to the company's Search Party feature, which is basically neighborhood surveillance. Here's how to disable it.

Not to be That Guy but I’ve been tracking cops who commit sex crimes against children. This isn’t just limited to ICE/CBP. There have been over 300 cops in 3 years who’ve committed these crimes.

I will say, some of his hip hop had legitimately good production, like way better than he deserved for such garbage bars. But this is a whole other level

Sweating because it’s hot outside: disgusting, awful, I want to go home and sleep
Sweating because I’m lifting weights: incredible, invigorating, I should be burning my eyes with perspiration if I’m doing it right

Every well-meaning liberal who falls for this trap is only helping to platform Nazism and legitimizing their ideology as worthy of debate. It’s not. It’s a lie. The only debate should be whether we ostracize them from civil society or eliminate them. Sorry if that’s hard to hear.

Stop debating Nazis. If they cared about the truth, they wouldn’t be Nazis. There’s no middle ground, you’re just validating their “views” which are just straight up lies to minimize the Holocaust. They deserve nothing but contempt and violence.
The madness of X in a nutshell:
A groyper‘s Holocaust denial post (cut off) does great numbers — 12K likes, 500K views.
A prominent liberal journalist and author comes in to try to rationally debate it. 300 likes, 25K views.
In a healthy info environment, these two things wouldn’t be interacting

It’s extra frustrating because neither he nor his sycophants are capable of accepting criticism. Putting ego above community is garbage
