"supporting and being complicit in genocide isn't sufficient to be Hitler. That Hitler requires a desire to be a dictator as well."
Such a chef's kiss of smug, willful ignorance. Like, this person knows Hitler is shorthand for 'terrible person', here, and not literal. So why suddenly be overly literal and pedantic about what characterizes a "Hitler"? Oh right, because Trump wants to be dictator! Meaning the entire point could have been expressed by typing "yes Biden genocide, but no because Trump"
Yup r/politics still mass downvoting and smugly lecturing anybody who says it's a genocide.
Coincidently the current top article is an opinion piece asking how the hell Trump could possibly be doing well in the election.
More astroturf than a putt putt golf course
That thread is a shitshow
So much
Here was my attempt at reasoning with a redditor today
"No, that is simply reductive and myopic."
You did a great job there. Too bad the Lib was dead set on being a Lib; otherwise they could have learned something.
Classic liberal. Agree with basically every point you make but still insist you're wrong because your vibes are off or whatever.
Libs gonna lib
Thanks, and agreed!

lol, I had to ignore that part of their comment because I just couldn't.
Because they're afraid to investigate the possibility that they are wrong
