@hagen there's a famous example of a logical fallacy that murderers drink milk therefore people who drink milk are murderers.

Reasoning like that comes awfully close to such a fallacy.

It's not persuasive, it just sounds naive.

@NeoNacho

@volkris @NeoNacho that’s not the right analogy though. the right analogy is what do you call people who tolerated the nazis during the third reich? nazis.

@hagen but that's factually incorrect.

The Nazi party was a specific organization with membership. People who weren't members weren't Nazis, Even if they were very tolerant people.

@NeoNacho

@volkris @NeoNacho LOL please don’t tell me that this is not what they teach in american schools? this is one of the worst takes i have ever heard.

@hagen history, man. Sometimes it doesn't confirm your biases, but that's no reason to rewrite it.
