I fucking hate these shitheads, I was arguing with one earlier and no matter how many facts I gave him with proper sources he just refused to actually show any kind of respect

    they are not human beings capable of thought or reason.

    Not that I don’t agree entirely with everything else you’ve written. The left routinely has this severe problem where they’re unable to acknowledge people for who they are and out of natural idealism convince themselves that if the opposition desires something harmful, it must only be because they don’t understand they’re doing harm.

    Therefore, all one must do to combat evil is to go, “nooo, stop, you’re going to make someone sad!” and after that doesn’t work, they’re out of ideas so they just keep trying the golden rule over and over.

    But holy shit, dude. They can be vicious. They can even be dangerous enough to pose an unacceptable threat to life. They’re still human.

        You come off like the kind of person who would laugh at a hanging, and by your own metric, I would be forced to label you inhuman on that basis. I’m going to refuse because otherwise, we’re just playing No True Scotsman with our own species. The biggest problem with people is that they are people.
