    Re: Best way to deal with Nazis and the KKK

    Whilst I'm sure some of them are in it purely because they like to create trouble and any conflict will do, others actually want to achieve their group's objectives and that requires getting mass support. Like Hitler winning over the Germans.

      What an awesome idea. So much better than the far left showing up and throwing bottles at them, causing a riot. Berliners, take note!

        There's also no such thing as 'bad' publicity.

        Even though no one here seems to directly support the KKK or Neo-Nazis or these hate groups, here we are still talking about them. They've won in a way because we're thinking about them, and their message. Devoting time and energy to them.

        Kinda creepy, huh?

          Remember the minister of that little 25 member congregation who made national headlines for burning copies of the Koran?

          What if people had just laughed at him, instead of getting their nickers in a bunch over it?

          I think that some things need to be dealt with, and some things just need to be laughed at...
          Every moment of a life is a horrible tragedy, a slapstick comedy, dark nihilism, golden illumination, or nothing at all; depending on how we write the story we tell ourselves.

            Ignoring something does not make it go away. Try ignoring cockroaches and see what happens.

              Yeah but getting our panties in a wad doesn't seem to do any good.

                Ignoring something and mocking it with humor as irrelevent and idiotic are not the same thing.

                  Agreed completely.
                  It's a really, really cool thing, to be able to show people that you can be yourself, and you should be proud of yourself, and you should own who you are and what you're about, and never make apologies for it.

                    I don't advocate getting one's panties in a wad any more than I would advocate jumping up on a chair and shrieking hysterically at the sight of a cockroach. Both are odd, uncomfortable, and not particularly useful.

                    That is correct.
