You can't defeat hate by trying to cut it off.

It's head. yes, that's exactly what you do with hate. You don't debate it, you don't listen to it, you don't teach it. you kill it with fire.

Ok so hypothetically what if everyone suddenly thought YOU were a fascist instead? Should we just kill you because we have deemed your stances dangerous and therefore we should end it?

Like you said we don't talk to you. We don't debate with you. We dont try and change your opinions. We just kill you because we disagree and it's ok because we made sure to label you as a group that's ok to do that with before we did it.

You don't see the issue with this line of thinking?

"what if it was opposite day and you were defending fascist opinions instead of me" really isn't the gotcha you think it is. words have meanings.

That's not what I was saying. Good lord you are dense.
