To paraphrase James Baldwin, 'we can love and disagree with each other, as long as that disagreement isn't about my humanity and right to exist'

Yeah, and I know the Mussolini quote you're referencing. Mussolini was deliberately dismissing the several aspects of fascism that made it look re brutal than mere corporatism. The integration of mobilized militias with government, the criminalization of all descent and popular organization, the elimination of out groups, etc.

You're being dismissive of what rights we have to protest and organize. Or the rights of some people to just exist. Guessing you don't use them so why would you appreciate them.

As long as Elon dead names his child (and supports dead naming), I'm dead naming that dumpster fire Twitter.

No.

This is a load of shit. Why it has up votes blows my mind.

Do some reading or watching of hunter gatherer societies and you'll see lots of group survival activities. Teamwork in hunts, in preserving food, in crafting tools, and making shelter.

If we were this self-centered, we wouldn't have such advanced communication, which is how we were able to do all those group activities.

Survival of the fittest is survival of those that cooperate.

He did. It contradicts basic tenants of Marxism, but he did write theory.

Edit: tenets. That's embarrassing. Thanks.

Yeah, it's a problem. A threatened country integrated a fascist militia into its army. Yes, and that's bad.

But the country as a whole does not like Nazis at all, and doesn't vote for them.

"In the 2019 Ukrainian elections, the far-right nationalist electoral alliance, including Svoboda, National Corps, Right Sector, Azov Battalion, OUN, and Congress of Ukrainian Nationalists, under-performed expectations. In the presidential election, its candidate Ruslan Koshulynskyi received 1.6% of the vote, and in the parliamentary election, it was reduced to a single seat and saw its national vote fall to 2.15%, half of its result from 2014 and one-quarter of its result from 2012."

The country has a Jewish president and a Muslim cabinet minister. Sound like a Nazi country to you?

There is/was a subreddit called the Herman Cain award for covidiots that died of covid after denying it or denying sensible public health measures.

Life was too easy, switched to hard mode this go.

Here's hard data to match your experience:

"This paper presents the largest study to date on gender bias, where we compare acceptance rates of contributions from men versus women in an open source software community. Surprisingly, our results show that women's contributions tend to be accepted more often than men's. However, women's acceptance rates are higher only when they are not identifiable as women. Our results suggest that although women on GitHub may be more competent overall, bias against them exists nonetheless."
