    I know what they are doing, and I know the type of people working there. They are not unforgivable or unredeemable, as much as it makes you feel good to say so.

    Lemmy and reddit both have a huge bias towards black and white thinking, which I think is shortsighted and immature.

      If a fascist wants to become not a fascist, good for them, and yes, they should be embraced for turning their backs on that insanity.

      That absolutely does not mean that fascists should be treated with kids gloves, or given the benefit of the doubt. Ever.

      You get empathy when you walk away from that shit. Not before.

        I simply dont think we should make them and their families scared to live in their homes. Thats not the point of all this, and its not going to change anyone’s mind.

        I will not condone what ia being done but I’m also not going to condemn the people doing it.

          It must be pointed out that a lot of the people doing it, especially recently, are racist, fascist assholes. So yeah, I’m absolutely going to condemn the people doing it. And I think your attempt to morally fence-sit on that topic is at best comically naïve, and at worst deeply disingenuous.
