Lmao. The furthest you could possibly get from socialism is nazism. Got any logic or proof to back up your claim? Marxists, socialists, communists and other assorted leftists were among Hitler's first targets in the night of the long knives. Also, the famous poem, "first they came for the socialists..."
Try again.
Poor trolling. Do you have any evidence they were socialist? Anything more convincing than me calling myself a unicorn and expecting you to believe me?
Oh, boy, I was waiting for this. I even pre-empted it.
I claim to be a unicorn. Am I then, a unicorn?
How avout the Democratic People's Republic of Korea? Are they democratic? They must be! It's in the name!
No one would ever lie about what they are! I say this as a pegasus.
You must be very confused by the titmouse.
Also you have no critical thinking skills or self-awareness. Nothing but the ability to parrot superficial and mindless “talking points” because you’d prefer to be told your fear and bigotry are correct and righteous without actually putting in any thought or self-reflection of your own.
This has to be rage bait. Such an obvious and pathetic strawman. That is not what the paradox of intolerance means. It means that a society, in order to truly be considered tolerant, must not tolerate intolerance; allowing intolerance only lets it fester and spread, and soon you are no longer a tolerant society.
You have both misunderstood the idea and the application.
Very likely on purpose. How does it even make sense to call it a "creed"? It's hardly even a belief. It's an argument.
Do better.
Source? Any proof?
So, none.
Literally no actual defense, just baseless counterattack. Nice. You’re a troll and an idiot.
