that’s a big conversation with very few black and white answers.

Nuance nonces on their way to defend nazi war criminals

[-] Wes_Dev@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

I'm just now catching up on this thread. I honestly don't understand what you're talking about. Nazis are bad. War criminals are bad. Sexual assault is bad, and perpetrators are 100% in the wrong, now and forever. Some things are very clear, and some things are nuanced. That's just life.

Morality isn't a free-for-all, and I don't think anything I said would have suggested otherwise.

The reason nuance is important, is because we get actually get Nazis and shit if we make everything an absolute. I'm not advocating for anything goes, I'm saying that some things are complicated and simple answers don't always work. How people use humor is one of those things that can be complicated. I know dark humor definitely helps me cope with and overcome my trauma when I'm in a dark place. It also helps me bond a little bit when I meet someone else will so uses dark humor. It's okay if that's not the same for you. People are different.

I'm not angry or trying to be mean or talk down or anything like that. I also don't automatically think you're a bad person, even though I feel like that insult was uncalled for. And I know some of the other people browsing here were kind of assholes, so, I'm sorry about them.

Anyway we don't need to continue talking about this if you don't want to. The entire thing is kind of stressful for me, so I might not check my messages for a few days anyway. If you do want to talk more, I'm open to that. But if you're just going to be rude, I'll probably not respond.
