These countries that want to be free and independent should be owned by another country that wants to own them and if you disagree you support imperialism… mind-boggling
like how do you argue against that? where do you even start?
they hide meaning behind big words they dont understand and then invent their own meaning for the word until their argument sounds like word soup to anyone who knows what the words actually mean
“the house is on fire, it should ALWAYS be on fire, and if you disagree then youre a dangerous pyromaniac and a phlebotomist”
My default is something snide like “It’s impressive that you were able to write all that when you clearly don’t know how to read” and then block them. For bonus points, make a post in an unrelated community so people who look at your comment history can boost you.
Okay but phlebotomists are actually evil. It’s the nurses that keep them from going too far. This is why I always take a wooden stake to my blood draw appointments.
Start by asking them to define their terms. “Belongs”, “imperialism”, and “fascism” are the ones I’d like to see definitions for. Though I’ve gotta admit that I’m not very clear on “fascism” these days, which seems to be a term with many meanings, depending on who is using it.
If someone’s argument depends on a lack of logic, getting them to elaborate on it can make that obvious.
They’ll probably avoid the question though because they aren’t there in good faith.
Fascism in modern political discourse is whatever the speaker dislikes. Any relationship to fascism is wholely unnecessary. Calling people out on misuse of the term is fascism.
