Yeah… it is what it is I guess…

Could you elaborate, since I have absolutely no clue what connections significant enough you are making to say this.

It was never meant to be an equivalence. I made it to draw a rough picture of how a person can have some good ideas, but be a person no one wants to associate with due their other ideas.

They have brought up some good points, but the good points they make are over shadowed by the whole genocide denial and “dunking on libs”.

The following example is not meant to represent hexbear users, but to show an example of how I could see it.

Think of a fascist who brings up some good examples of modern problems in about 1/10 of their messages, while the rest are talking about how Mussolini was actually good, since he brought up the living standard in Italy and expanded the public sector. And when someone brings up the bad things Mussolini did, the fascist just says “It’s clearly western propaganda”.

You wouldn’t want to read their messages, since they are full of this fascist apologetic garbage, and the good points they bring up are ignored because of their other opinions.

It doesn’t matter how good willed your opinions are if no one wants to associate with you.

The factory must grow!

That’s what Big Non-Dino-Oil wants you to think, so they can get all of the moneys from everyone.

The modern way of doing this would involve reversing the process of dinosaur bones turning into oil. So you just put into the oil-to-bone-inator and bury those bones back into the ground where they originally came from.

If this happens they’ll do the “A person who swears to tell the truth and nothing but the truth says what” ordeal. If that doesn’t work they will just let you leave

I couldn’t find a single mention of a fascist movement in the uprising. So either it was neglible in size, or you are just lying.

“Insufficiently oppressive”. What? Hungary was a really oppressive nation during that time, and you wanted it to be more oppressive?

And opressive to who? Fascist? They can just lie about not being a fascist. That leaves out to just guess who is a fascist and that sounds like a wonderful time for the citizens.

Patton really was correct about the Soviet Union.

Let’s take a look what started that “fascist” uprising. Years of economic mismanagement, opression, and being forced to pay a big chunk of their gdp to the Soviets for war reperations were all factors that lead to the Hungarian Revolution.

And who did these “fascist” pick as their leader? Imre Nagy, the man who was ousted from power by the soviets for having the audacity to be a more moderate communist than hardline stallinists.

The US doing something bad doesn’t justify someone else doing bad. Think about a nazi who uses that reasoning, they would sound like a nazi apologist.

Yes, the US did some bad stuff, but I still view them as the lesser evil when compared to the USSR or China.

Also Hungary doing something 65 years later doesn’t justify the actions of the Soviets.
