    "Look, it's his instance, he can do blood libel if he wants"

    I don't give a shit what he can do, the question is what he should do. Spouting heinous lies uncritically is bad in any social setting.

      If you wanted to convince them of what they should do your methods are strange.

      Idk if you think I'm trying to defend their stance or this meme or something, I'm not. I just don't see the point of all this yelling past each other.

        I am simply saying that this bullshit about "they don't owe you anything" is complete pablum. If you make a claim, especially an accusation of essentially being genocidal, you are thereby inviting counterclaims. Who gives a shit what instance it's on? If he denies the Holocaust to his houseguests, that is not particularly better or worse than denying it while he is someone else's guest because the principle problem is the claim itself.
