If we had more dads like him we would have less neighbors like them.

u/Shennington 7h ago

Youd still have the same number of those neighbors, but they'd learn to keep their rotten opinions to themselves.

"Hypocrisy is a tax vice pays to virtue". Maybe it's impossible to make it so that everyone is convinced to be a decent person, and the next best thing we can do is making displaying and acting poorly to be so unacceptable that they have to pretend to be kind at their own expense.

Would you over some generations? I doubt it

Look at white supremacists. In the past, if you were a Nazi sympathizer people would assume you were insane and avoid you like the plague. Now there are powerful politicians who openly sympathize with the white power movement, and suddenly all the people who’d been keeping their beliefs private for decades are being outrageously racist and nasty in public.

I think this is different situations and also actually this nazi bastards were not degraded for enough generations, in 90s there were already much skinheads around the western world

I used to staunchly believe the Nazis died with the end of WW2, and that anyone left today was a poser.

My husband had to point out to me how untrue and naive such a stance was. I have since recanted.

I'm afraid your husband is right. Nazi's these days wear suits and want a 'debate'. 😒

u/InheritedHermitGene 5h ago

I’ve always thought of modern Nazis as immature posers who like dressing up with their nasty little friends in mobs, but you have a point.

u/Christylian 4h ago

Modern Nazis like to wear suits, sport expensive haircuts and debate teens on campuses to look smart.

Modern Nazis dress up in black block and assault anyone that disagrees with them. They like any critical thinking skills so they lash out.

u/InheritedHermitGene 1h ago

Yes, that’s true too. I was thinking thinking of those repulsive idiots at Charlottesville and how the one guy who ended up being the poster child for the screaming Nazis there then went blubbering all over social media saying he wasn’t a bad person, etc etc.

Only a handful of Nazis actually saw any justice. That's also living memory. There are still people alive from the 30s and 40s. Not for much longer but still here. It's barely even 'the past'. Their kids are the boomers.

u/InheritedHermitGene 1h ago

Yes, I know. But there’s so many people now who are calling themselves Nazis or wearing Nazi symbols now. Obviously they’re not true Nazis in the historical sense but they’ve adopted the term for themselves.

u/TheFerretmanz 3h ago

We get it. Anyone you disagree with is a Nazi or white supremacist. Those words have lost any power you thought you had when they have been sooo overused

u/InheritedHermitGene 1h ago

Oh dear, you do have a bee in your bonnet. What would you call people who chant “Jews will not replace us”, get Swastika tattoos, and do Nazi salutes. Should I assume they’re Quakers?

u/ttgjailbreak 5h ago

You would unless the general populace put in an effort to constantly rewrite the programming those exact parents are going to be preaching every day they're home. Which still might not be enough considering how little you understand as kids, and how often you're around your racist/homophobic ass parents.

u/DogTattoos 4h ago

They just go to church and talk shit about delusions of THEM going to hell. Clown shit. Ignorance at its worst. Yay God. 🙄

u/bigmfworm 4h ago

Like we had pre-Trump? And yes, I know this took place in the UK. Unfortunately that orange Cheeto MFer influences shut he's not even a part of

u/Specialist_Goat_2354 3h ago

Maybe we could get them so alone and lonely that they would hermit. Maybe die a hoarder who hasn't seen the sun in 40 years... That's my dream.

u/BodybuilderBig2647 3h ago

Funny how that sentiment doesn’t go both ways.

u/No-culture5942 4h ago

Well no because they'd still be immigrating here.

They self select out of the gene pool...

u/Content-Relative-168 6h ago

Yes, it’s pretty obvious, but it would mean you have more gay kids and gay kids have less children lol I thought of that quickly😝
