She said i should see someone who had experience with "extremism" and "racism"

I had to fight the urge to call her a PMC radlib

    I mean context is important everywhere. I'm just choosing to apply the context that I've seen in my life. Saying sterilize white people in a conversation about how ICE sterilizes latinos isn't even out of pocket.

    Its not surprising its off putting to people, its just not all that off putting to me. Like, at first glance the sterilize bit was off putting but I'd just rather be charitable considering what my life experience has been.

      Yeah something like "We ought to sterilize them and see how they like it" tracks. Of course, in a conversation that might get a general "haha yeah" and thing move on, whereas on a forum like this it's just hanging out missing the context of conversational progression
