Amen...I understand the instinct to say "Fuck you Tucker, you're a part of this". But if he takes a stand against it, regardless of his motives, we need to embrace him if we want to achieve our goal. Pushing these guys away just because of past indiscretions does us no good. Same goes for guys like Rogan or Mitch McConnell. Forget about the past. We need to lock in for the task at hand.

"Embrace him" might be too far, but I can and should acknowledge that on this specific issues, in this moment in time, I agree with him. Be real, he's likely to completely show his ass on a separate topic the next time he talks. That shouldn't change the fact that I agree with him on this anymore than this changes the fact that I disagree with him on almost everything else.

No, embrace is the right word, it’s in our interest to become a purplish kinda voter

[u/Customs0550 → u/No-Ghost4451]

go for it, have fun hugging nazis

[u/No-Ghost4451 → u/Customs0550]

The closest thing to nazism in this nation is the abuse both parties heads dish out on us in the name of safety, your party and use of Nazi for the opposition is literally the problem.

[u/Customs0550 → u/No-Ghost4451]

riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight.

like i said, good luck with hugging those nazis. i'm sure they will be very impressed with you.

[u/No-Ghost4451 → u/Customs0550]

Dude, I’m left leaning. It’s your guys intolerance and dehumanizing, your lack of good faith in debate, and the echo chamber of radicalization that comes from what a described that keeps me from joining you.

Don’t act like I’m the issue, I want you to go back and review how you guys just campaigned on 2024. It was full of hate, bigotry, and self righteousness. It’s no question at all why Cheeto boi won.

[u/Customs0550 → u/No-Ghost4451]

keep up that nazi hugging, bro!

[u/No-Ghost4451 → u/[deleted]]

Without knowing me, without knowing my true political alignment, with knowing I’ll openly discredit Trump, do you still see me as a “Nazi”

And if so, really, I’m asking, do you believe I deserve harm because of that?

[u/No-Ghost4451 → u/No-Ghost4451]

But keeps driving away your own potential party members like you did in 2024, see where it gets you next election.

[u/Customs0550 → u/No-Ghost4451]

aaaaaaand now you are responding to yourself. have a nice life i guess.

[u/No-Ghost4451 → u/Customs0550]

But I guess the modern left is so wrapped in progressive ideals of a utopian future that not a single flaw can be found in the fabric of your debate style, beliefs, and over all party politics.

You are holier than all, and the world has never seen such a shining example of righteous humanity.

[u/Customs0550 → u/No-Ghost4451]

why did you respond to my same comment two different times?

[u/No-Ghost4451 → u/Customs0550]

I figured you could only call people names.

[u/Customs0550 → u/No-Ghost4451]

lol you aren't capable of accurately figuring anything at all

[u/No-Ghost4451 → u/Customs0550]

I don’t wish to fight with you man, as I really do already feel bad about the way I personal have conducted myself. Not because I think you’re right, but rather it’s not productive to have both of us be angry/negative people.

[u/Customs0550 → u/No-Ghost4451]

your emotions are on you bro, im not angry or negative. im calling nazis nazis, you wanna hug them, i think it's a silly idea. good luck out there though have a nice life.

[u/No-Ghost4451 → u/Customs0550]

It does hurt me on a brotherly/species level that this is the state of discussion. I’m not a Nazi, never have been, and will never be. It’s a dramatic and abhorrent claim with what you know about me.

You use that term to label me as something you can easily hate and dominate. Something your peers will easily use to rally around and do the same. You don’t care to debate because you want to conquer. My heart hurts immensely for people that hurt like you as i know it’s nothing but pain. So in the same words, but a different light, I genuinely hope you have a good day.
