Thank you for the example of someone dehumanizing other people.
How's the view from your high horse?
I've learned that trying to take the high road with people that revel in bigotry and corruption is a fruitless endeavor. I'm done being naive and giving them the benefit of the doubt. Perhaps that's because I live in the real world and actually deal with these people, rather than the pontificating about the intellectual concept of these people.
You are interesting. Go ahead and doubledown on hatred. Thanks. Have a great day!
Speaking of interesting, you should read up on the paradox of tolerance. It's very enlightening stuff! Thanks for sharing your perspective!
You should learn empathy.
You should learn the difference between lacking empathy and reserving it for people that aren't bigots.
