        Which is funny because if people listened to what you said and followed your instructions, then there literally would be no critical thinking here. Whereas if you choose to utilize critical thinking, you would not actually dismiss this thing entirely simply because it came from Tumblr because that is a logical fallacy called poisoning the well.

        And if all it took to stop critical thinking for anybody was just saying, oh it comes from a bad place, then nobody would ever really do any critical thinking, right?

        So let’s ignore where it comes from and talk about the topic that’s actually being presented, ok?

          i think aesthetics play a major role in idea transfer. this isnt high level shit, it’s actually a very childish view, and the aesthetics of the text display this perfectly.

          And it’s not like the merits of this perspective were actually being discussed, at least not when i commented this. im sorry you felt the need to defend this shitpost.

      What definition of “Nazi” are we working with here? I assume it’s a set of beliefs and not Germany’s Nazi party from WW2. So what are these beliefs? Genuine question.

      EDIT: as expected, empty downvote with no engagement on this basic question. I’m not trolling. It’s a sincere question. If we’re going to agree on who deserves to die don’t you think we should maybe get everything on the table in some detail?
