    Why does everyone always pick me to yell things I don’t disagree with on here? I made a comment that creating a weapon like that would be dangerous in anyone’s hands. What does that have to do with giving Nazis an inch?

      Most of the time I hear that argument it 's always “if we do that, they’ll do it back when they get power, so we shouldn’t do that!” People act wildly surprised that fascism is on the rise, but try telling them that the fascist talk shows saturating our airwaves need to be stopped and they’ll say you’re the real fascist for stifling free speech. NEVER have I heard any of them say “yes, we need more socialist and leftist options in broadcast media.” They’ll tell you that it’s about money, but who is funding fascist radio?..not the listeners.
