If the distinction is minor, but saying that we should look at our own evil history instead of somewhere else’s; however, doing so would like reduce some people’s opposition support, should you do it?
I think calling them the gestapo, a tool of what many Americans would identify as the most evil regime, is more likely to get support from people than saying literally anything negative about America. Americans are dumb.
Here’s an ethical question:
If the distinction is minor, but saying that we should look at our own evil history instead of somewhere else’s; however, doing so would like reduce some people’s opposition support, should you do it?

But the problem is that this reinforces their denial, which leads to them continuing to support other organizations that do the exact same things.
This isn’t a *minor distinction", this is the very thinking that let ICE grow and expand for two decades.
The gestapo were a cheap knock off of the American things.
The Nazis were inspired by the American lunacy of old times, if you remember well.
Indeed, does that matter? The average American doesn’t know shit about history, especially not the darker parts of American history.
They definitely know about the nazis.
The average American can barely just shoot a gun and that’s it.
