Wait wait wait. So the people who support treating humans like they are disposable trash undeserving of rights if they dare stray from the very narrowly defined normative values are now okay because they changed sides? Fuck that. They still support violence against others and hate against the unknown. They are still undeserving of acceptance.
Supporting Nazis will make us all Nazis.
There's always these brainlet comments under this repost. Um, would you rather they stay Nazis so you can pretend to feel morally superior while not doing anything about it?
For many, the answer is "yes", because it's perfectly easy and incredibly comfortable. Why sacrifice the immediate gratification of what they're doing now with literally anything else.
