being a bigot is your choice Jimmy... it's not my place to try to convince you otherwise.. you have to make that decision on your own.. bigotry is derived from personal experiences..
"However, today the term bigot defines someone who is so preoccupied with their prejudices that they begin to treat other people with fear, distrust, hatred, contempt, or intolerance. This mistreatment of people can be on the basis of a person's ethnicity, religion, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, disability, socioeconomic status, or other characteristics."
"Fear is the path to the dark sideā¦fear leads to angerā¦anger leads to hateā¦hate leads to suffering" - Yoda
Racism leads to Hatred.. Bigotry leads to Hatred.. there is no basic difference.. but bigotry is worse.. maybe you actually hate yourself for hating others...?
re-read that Yoda quote.. with a open mind jimmy..

being a right wing voter as you claim. you should understand the difference between expressing an opinion & expressing acts of violence... so I am not sure on your claimed voter status.. .
Oh, I know. I'm just pointing out how annoying it is when someone is nitpicking your words for not mentioning extreme exceptions. I mentioned the general socialist philosophy of putting the group ahead of the individual, which is a subject with exceptions. Yet you just had to go on about religious oppression, racial oppression, and sexual oppression. Obviously not what I was referring to, and obviously not mainstream socialism at all. So I reacted in kind by extending it to ridicule.

but that is what you referred to. because you referred to all of those things specifically. you specifically picked the word 'Propagating'.. even noting " And just to be certain you noticed. I specifically chose the word "propagation" as it doesn't explicitly mean partaking in these very acts. A mere indirect connection is enough. "
" a mere indirect connection is enough. " - which is like saying. --> 'I hate racist's, but since I have a mere indirect connection to the subject of racism , that makes me a racist. '
you wanted too " dig deeper into that as you seem to be so invested into pedantry and investigating every potential exception"
Jihadism is not an opinion pedophilia is not an opinion genocidal Ideals is not an opinion anarchy is not an opinion foreign powers is not an opinion.
propagating those things is not the spread of Personal Opinions. it is the spread of the ideals of those things.
apologies for completely destroying your narrative that "Propagating" violent ideals is the same as Propagating Personal Opinions

You are missing my point. If you deflect through pedantry, then so will I. I'll purposely act the annoying little twat, to make clear my point. It's called 'Reductio ad absurdum'.
