- sjsdaiuasgdia 2y ago>Seems like a typical mythos of most political movements these days, doesn't it? E.g., "the far-right is our greatest threat". >Though I'm sure right-wing groups believe themselves to be tolerant of one-another and their allies and others with similar aims, and that groups that oppose them are intolerant and therefore must be met with intolerance. >Other side will call them intolerant racists too, it is also pretty clear to them. These would be the statements where they were creating a false equivalence. The things being compared are not equivalent but they are given rhetorical treatment to make them seem equivalent.
- Shosty123 2y agoFrom what I can tell, they simply made an observation. You're the one applying a value judgment to their statements. Pointing out that different tribes use rhetoric to "other" outsiders isn't creating a false equivalence.

- starspangled 2y agoYou're very intolerant of people discussing this subject.
- sjsdaiuasgdia 2y agoI'm intolerant of fascist messaging.
- starspangled 2y agoDenouncing and accusing people as fascists who must not be tolerated for the transgression of discussing social and political issues in a manner deemed verboten seems like something a fascist might do.
