Because you can spend your whole life telling nazis to act like decent compassionate people, and you won't change the mind of a single one. Don't waste your life, waste them instead.

your whole life telling

That's true for everything. Nobody wants to be told. It takes human interaction to change a mind.

Telling isn't a human interaction? Are you really going to use a semantics argument to defend nazi shitfucks?

[-] plyth@feddit.org 0 points 1 hour ago

It's not semantics. People have their own reasons to do things. They know that others reject them and informing them once more that somebody considers them wrong doesn't change anything.

To change somebody, they need a new insight that makes them reevaluate their preferences.

[-] Bytemeister@lemmy.world 2 points 48 minutes ago

The semantics part is arguing that "telling" doesn't mean human interaction...

Extreme example: Human interaction? That could mean a fist-fight, the only difference between a nazi and a carebear is brotherly love!

That's the gist of your argument; that I didn't use the right words to describe in detail how try to instill some empathy in nazis.

[-] plyth@feddit.org 0 points 38 minutes ago

Yes, until your last sentence. It doesn't matter which words you use but what you mean. If by telling you mean respectful conversations, then that's the right approach. Then I would like to know why you think that it does not work.

Because you can spend your whole life ~~telling~~ singing kumbaya, hugging, kissing, talking about your feelings and experiences, traveling and learning about new cultures with nazis to instill a greater sense of humanity to get nazis to act like decent compassionate people, and you won’t change the mind of a single one. Don’t waste your life, waste them instead.

There is an extra special version of my comment just for you.

[-] plyth@feddit.org 1 points 17 minutes ago

Why? Fascism requires people to give up compassion. If fascists are approached with compassion, not in the kumbaya, hugging, kissing but the kumbaya, hugging, kissing way, how can they remain fascists?
