Individual crimes aren’t any kind of intelligent persons justification for hating an entire group. Everyone on the planet belongs to some demographic that has, at some point, committed a terrible crime. If this demographic committed crimes at a remarkable rate compared to the rest of the population maybe there’d be something to that, but just a link to a few individual crimes? There’s no way a person with their wits would find that compelling.
It’s also unlikely that your second example is genuinely non binary.
I gave obvious reasons, undeniable. You can’t even argue against the point, unless of course, you secretly approve of Trannies shooting up churches and school children?
Don’t worry about it. Just know that you won’t convince many others that spree-shooting Christian and Conservative American children is a ‘good’ thing.
But you genuinely think, with all of your intellect, that listing 4 individual crimes is a genuine justification for hating a group of people?
Does your intellect not acknowledge that anybody can list 4 crimes from any demographic? You could justify hating men, women, black people, white people, Asian people, truck drivers, nurses, financial advisors and mothers if 4 crimes were enough to justify hating an entire group.
Do you understand that? If this is the criteria, we’ve got everybody.
That’s why it can’t be a good criteria for someone with their wits. The only remaining question is, do you still have your wits?
Nazis were Germans. According to your logic, all Germans should be blamed for eternity.
What type of nonsense is this? Not liking LGBTQ is one thing, accusing all of them for crimes of individuals is completely different. Mass shootings of children has happened by various groups of people, we do not stigmatise the entire groups.
Is this a joke? The big scandal of Catholic Church back in 2012 with massive children sex abuse cases has been conveniently erased from your memory. Even the Pope had to make public apology on 2018.
For the saints… You should read Christopher Hitchens’ book on mother Teressa, which became a saint afterwards. It is quite reveiling on how saints are selected…
You did the same thing with LGBTQ, remember? I showed you how your accusation of a complete group of people can backfire.
Exactly as not all Archibishops are child rapists, not all LGBTQ are mass shooters.
Who said anything about moral superiority? I commented only about accusing a complete group of people for crimes of individuals.
The crimes of individuals should bring accusations for these individuals alone. We should not start accusing arbitrarily people for other people’s crimes.
The moral worth of a person has other metrics than the sexual preferences. Unless of course we refer to illegal sexual activities.
And of course the world gets divided into two categories. One must be woke or anti-woke. A binary schema.
Woke used to mean black people who were aware when traveling where they could go safely and where they could not. It expanded a bit in the 60s though it was still mainly focused on black social justice issues and, well, common sense in a racist nation. But then it got coopted, we could even say culturally appropriated, by white people who expanded the meaning to include things like LG etc. movements, but also by opponents who used it as a sarcastic term.
Woke refers to specific positions moral and ethical positions. Unless you are saying that if one disgrees, say about trans issues (how much: can one be pro-trans but think that children should not be able to set in motion surgery and hormone treatments?) one cannot be moral, that’s a very strange question. There are all sorts of moral and ethical issues not covered by woke. And it’s extermely complicated, for example, in minority communities who may well be very supportive of certain aspects of work but critical of others. They often tend to be more conservative when it has to do with trans issues. Are they then just binarily immoral?
us/them. Binary. Like it would be impossible to be feminist and anti racist by not believe that most or any transpeople are actually something other than what they think they are. Even good old hostile McCheese has no problem with gays, but does have issues with trans.
Must everyone completely commit to team A or B or be considered completely immoral?
