Apply the principle in reverse. What if Republican activists were revealed to be advocating for putting people in camps?

You know and I know you'd be crowing that this means all Republicans are evil. Hell, you do it anyway. And yet whenever a Democrat does it, it's an isolated incident and means nothing.

Guilt-by-association is a core tactic of cancel-culture/culture-wars bullshit.

Remember the David Duke-Donald Trump stuff? Or this?

It's easy to find some bad behavior from someone somewhere who's somewhat associated with the person you want to smear. Then culture-war faggots claim that the person they want to smear is cancelled. ("Could be THE END For Bernie Sanders")

It's such a stupid little game.

Yes! That's why it's so delicious that the weapon that the far left created is now being used against the far left. It's poetic justice. You don't see too much of that these days.

It's not that they weren't warned, either. We all shouted at the top of our lungs that the Frankenstein they were making would turn on them. But they were so focused on attacking the enemy that they refused to listen.

I don't? Pretty sure I do. It dominates most of the internet in fact.
