nialv7@lemmy.world 2 weeks agothey are evil, but they are not illogical. there seem to be a confusion between logic, which is objective, and morality, which is not.
and i think the mentality of “they are evil, therefore they are not logical, therefore there is no point trying to talk to them” is very unconstructive. because it rules out the possibility of change. if you think they cannot be changed, what else can you do? wait for them to all die, then we’d all be living in paradise? or throw 40% of US citizens in prison?
