When someone replies to this and says 'stop making everything political' they mean to tell you to stop challenging the status quo (lemmy.world)

Same argument nazis use to justify removing pride from video games. Not cutting it.

Suggested that we laugh and forget our cares for a while. Got compared to a nazi.

It's not my best day on the internet, but at least I have a funny story to tell.

Uh-huh and with a response like that you've dashed any plausible deniability.

Escapism and censorship are different things and I think they were suggesting the former. Turning your head off for a while after a day of politics or activism is very important for my mental health sometimes. As I understand them, that's what they meant at least. If not, meaning they're for strictly prohibiting political things in any way I would agree that this would be bad though!

You're giving them way too much credit on not being reprehensible pieces of shit. The escapism argument is always horseshit masking bigotry.
