That is generally true, but in recent years has become common for conservatives too. Both camps have become emotional blackmailers and use the following terms in responses to what is intended to be intellectual debate.
racist
homophobe
extremist
anti-Semite
denier (used as a smear, instead of revisionist)
far-right
“like Hitler”
“that’s what’s the Nazis thought/did”
bigot
fascist
“you’re ignorant” (often used in response to someone who is actually well-informed)
hater
incel
misogynist
“that’s like the Middle East” (with mentions of burqas and hijabs)
“who are you/am I to judge?”
“who’s to say what’s normal?”
I always find the diatribe of Indians being forced off their lands and killed as some Nobel race of peaceful empaths tiresome.
Having a heavy Native American background with my granddad on my moms side being full blooded Cherokee, this line of thinking is academically dishonest and quite frankly insulting.
I sympathize with this post. I feel the same way as a Jewish man when someone breaks out with “you’re like Hitler,” “anti-Semite”, “that’s what the Nazis did,” “Jews are only 2% of the population,” and “anti-Semitic canard” when anyone tries to have an intellectual discussion about WWII, Israel, Jewish influence and power, or history involving Jews.
Not counting those chickens yet. Kavanaugh has a weak spine. I woyldnt be surprised to see him end up agreeing with Roberts when the final opinion is released.
This is nonsensical. Because Indians made war amongst themselves, or fought Europeans, it was OK to try and exterminate them all as a matter of public policy? Did we kill all the Germans or Japanese after WW2? We helped rebuild their nations.
