Because you don’t and we can see through your actions and context of the debate your true intent. You’re just some enabler defending fascists the way some milquetoast housewife defends her abusive husband after he was caught raping the kids.
You can try to drop people in little boxes to suit your ideology, but it doesn’t work well on me. I’ve made it a habit to argue with bigots - particularly at work. There’s a surprising number of people that sound hateful but are just ignorant and curious.
That’s exactly what the Nazis you’re defending are doing, so I guess if you’ll defend genocidal maniacs doing the same thing, I’m entitled to it, too. Since freedom of speech isn’t about protecting others from tyranny but forcing others to be subjected to it simply because the tyrants are their neighbors – more accurately, a group you’re a part of.
I haven’t defended nazis and I certainly haven’t defended genocidal maniacs. Pretty sure I’ve said humans are humans, even ones with bad ideas and that robust self defense is a basic human right.
That’s exactly what you’re doing when you defend a bigot’s right to be a bigot, and no, you’re not going to backtrack or weasel your way out of the fact that you’re defending bigots and therefore a bigot yourself.
He’s not advocating for arguing with fascists. He’s advocating for validating fascists by hearing them out and treating them as though their shit ideas could ever have merit or that any of them have merit as people.
We’ve seen what happens when naive people tolerate fascists. You’re just trying to make that happen again.
I think you can argue with bigots without validating their ideas. I’m not arguing that you should, but I’m comfortable doing it. I’ve tried to cultivate a human first perspective of people and I don’t think I can pull off violence against someone for their words without damaging the compassion and empathy I try to live by.

I think none of them will ever deserve an audience for their idiotic fascist bigot nazi ideas. Just because your sympathies lie with them, that doesn’t mean everyone else has to enable your bigot buddies to do what you hope they will.
Why would you assume that someone in support of arguing with fascists wouldn’t argue with fascists?

You’re sick.

Bigot.
I urge you to show me how I’ve defended them. Even in the post comments I’ve called some out. You people are delusional.
