Dumbass liberal take.

The unwritten rules of society rely on people acting in good faith. If someone just honestly believes that the moon landing was fake or fairies are real or whatever, cool, I don't really give a fuck.

As soon as your dipshit beliefs start negatively impacting other people, especially when they're provably false, you invite any and all criticism. The social contract is broken.

This is just the paradox of tolerance except "bullying is bad"

    There's a difference between criticism and bullying. Criticism can be constructive and help people to change. Bullying just isolates and alienates people and tends to calcify their positions.

    It's all a matter of what we want. Do we want to feel superior? That's what bullying is for. Do we want to help people change their ways? Then go for constructive criticism.

    Another dumbass liberal take.

    Fascists are winning everywhere because of tolerant morons like you.

    Not all ideas are valid. Again, if you break the social contract by spreading harmful misinformation, all bets are off. You deserve to be alienated and cast out of society. That's how a social contract works.

    Okay, let me put this in the language of bullying, so you can understand it.

    I'm not a liberal, you fucking dipshit, and I'm not tolerant towards harmful ideologies, I'm just smart enough to recognize the fucking reality: you need a theory of change, to actually change things. Are you seriously fucking stupid enough to believe that calling someone names will change their minds, you fucking moron?

    Did that work? Are you convinced? No? Oh well maybe your approach is fucking stupid, then, and you need to learn from someone who actually has deradicalized nazis before.
