Yes, even if it's """ironic"""! Get a better joke! We don't need one that asserts the idea that "sexual deviancy" is a thing let alone a mark of being subhuman.

in reply to @problemnyatic's post:
Until we can abandon the idea of having a military globally, anything that can escalate to murder is inherently fascist.
There won't be a not-fascist joke until then.
"this is pointless because we have to solve [massive global problem] first" isn't a very helpful line of argument
No, but neither is the discourse, ultimately - it's not winning any favors, it's not changing any minds, it's a fact that'll get glossed-over, like many others.
It also lampshades how easy it is to descend into fascist motions.
I genuinely don't get what you're getting at? are you just doing a slippery slope argument? also "please don't use this word" posts definitely do change people's behaviors. what language we use is important.
This is an excellent argument for apathy and defeatism! Good job. Now try somethng constructive
I would, if I could do so without proving my own point. So long as intense violence is an answer, so too will there be fascist methods at every corner.
I'm going to put my attention instead towards highlighting just how jargon-ized the political sphere has become, and make people realize just how divided we've become, in all the intolerant motions that have happened.
Truly you deserve a plaque for your ability to say less than nothing in an incredible number of words
Also maybe please stop cranking your hog in my comment section please
This isn't about the idea that calling something degenerate can escalate to murder. It's that the idea of degeneracy as a useful idea betrays an (at least partially) fascist view of the world.
bare minimum it signals a willingness to incorporate fascist talking points into normal conversation that is fucking weird absolute best and a strong red flag at also absolute best
I have nothing to contribute here except that, in my sleep-deprived state, for a moment upon reading this I sat there wondering how mathematically defined "degenerate conic sections" are fascist rhetoric
meanwhile, in a similar state, I was left going "what the heck is degenerate comic sans" at yours
Spectacular, no notes, let's hit the showers and probably all take a fucking nap it seems like we could all use it
