Makes me feel better though!
ok, but isn’t the goal the end of fascism?
They didn’t reason themselves into fascism they’re not going to reason their way out either.
Yeah, I respect the principle, but it isn’t realistic.
By the time someone embraces that kind of ideology, you aren’t talking them out of it. And, more important, you aren’t ending the ideology one at a time.
It takes something huge to break through that kind of thinking and built up hate. Yeah, you run into cases of it happening when the nazi/fascist/white supremacist/bigot changes over time when no longer able to have support and has someone guiding them. But that’s not going to end it once it’s an existential threat.
And it is. The ideology was tolerated too long, and supported by people in power. You just don’t have time to talk that away.
