      It’s become clear republicans have no interest in playing by the rules. I’m long past the point of caring, I just want them to hurt. Corrupt away

      I mean at this point I’d try anything to not recreate Germany circa late 1930’s…

      I really doubt the people in concentration camps would have agreed with “ya know what? Maybe fighting corruption with corruption isn’t something worth trying…”

        I happen to know people who were in concentration camps.

        They would’ve tried anything to stop it.

        And it’s pretty fucking disgusting for you to use the victims of Nazis and the victims of concentration camps to try to make your point here.

        Boost people experienced enough torment and torture and horror. Leave them alone and let them rest in peace.

          So you do support their counter-corruption initiative or no?

            One does not defeat the monster by becoming the monster. That’s called “surrender”.

            And there’s nothing “counter” to the corruption proposed here.

              No, surrender is shutting down minor forms of resistance as you are doing now.

              Countering corruption (a) with corruption (b) is countering the original corruption.

                Praising Nazis and the holocaust on an Internet forum is not “resistance”.

                And if you think you’re some kind of freedom fighter, we’re all fucking doomed.

                You are too stupid and too ridiculous to deserve any more of my attention. You’re blocked.

                Go waste someone else’s time sucking Nazi dick and making jokes about the holocaust. Fuck you.

          You realize I’m arguing to try to stop what happened to them, from happening to others right? So yah, let’s use corruption to fight corruption, what else do we have to lose? I’m not really sure why you’d be against trying anything to not recreate the horrors those people lived through and witnessed.

            One does not defeat the monster by becoming a monster. By definition, that means the monster won.

            But, since we think it’s such a brilliant idea, how is corruption going to defeat the Nazis then or today? How is more corruption going to end up with us having freedom?

            Right. That’s what I thought. Fucking nothing. It all sounds nice until you have to actually think about the results.

            So, go on. Tell me how corruption is going to defeat the Nazis. Otherwise, shut up.

                If you think that discussing the holocaust is ever a time “to be chill”, then you need need a history lesson.

                There was nothing “chill“ about the massacre of almost 16,000,000 people. But, you clearly think it’s a joke.

                Fuck you. I’m blocking you, cause I’ve heard enough of you excusing Nazis and blaming their victims.

                  Oh Jesus Christ dude, I was trying to get you to calm down and stop being so argumentative when we both want the same outcome. No. 2nd. Holocaust.

                  Take some time and cool off, I didn’t mean to piss you off, and I don’t take the holocaust lighty, I just off the cuff suggested an idea of trying to fight fascism with their own strategies, I dunno how you lnked that to “I support Nazi’s”…

              You got the reading comprehension and reasoning ability of a struggling middle schooler. Whatever school you attended failed you, and I’m sorry for that.

                You’re descending someone who made jokes about the holocaust. Don’t insult me to make your shitty actions appear more palatable.

                  It’s always amusing when someone manages to prove a point while trying to dispute it.
