Then you accept the beliefs of Nazis by your definition. After all, you haven't killed any yet.
That's not my definition. That's you trying to deflect.
No, i neither argue with them of GTFO, like I said.
I do argue with Nazis. Why do you continue to let them exist.
That's me saying you have a different definition to accept from me. I consider accepting a belief to be believing the belief is acceptable and sane. I do not accept nazism.
Why are you arguing with me, then, when all I said was that you shouldn't accept being in the presence of their beliefs? Based on your most recent comments you seem to agree... so what are we doing here? And why are you trying to catch me in some gotcha based on a statement I never made?
And no, accepting a belief means not challenging it, implicitly treating it as normal.
Okay, so you agree you can accept a person as a human and a friend without accepting their beliefs? Because that's what I'm saying
I wouldn't really agree with that only because its just not your job. You don't have a responsibility with burdening yourself with constantly correcting others.
Misleading question. If their "differing belief" is that God created the Earth, or that crystals have healing magic, then whatever. They can be kooky if they want. If their "differing belief" is that only whites deserve to live, they can get fucked.
What a deliciously convenient excuse for not challenging your nazi friends. "It's not my job!!"
It's also "not your job" to queue properly, to put shopping trolleys back in the corral, or to obey traffic laws. You do it anyway, though, because it is the right thing to do. I don't have to be employed for every little thing i do.
But hey, let's try your logic: it is not my job to ensure that every little racist feels accepted and understood. It's not my responsibility to coddle Nazis.
Well it is your responsibility in some ways to not intentionally mistreat others. But I agree your job isn't to talk to racists. I never tried to tell you it was. I did tell you someone can talk to racists without being a racist themselves though.
If you don't challenge their racism, you're just accepting it.
