minus-squareIttihadChe@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·5 months agoSo are you suggesting fascists and fascist movements should not be restrained via group with power and control over them but people just not accepting them is fine?
minus-squareRadicalEagle@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·5 months agoNo. I’m suggesting that just because a person is intolerant doesn’t mean that they’re oppressive.
minus-squareMajorMajormajormajor@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up0·5 months agoAll oppression is intolerant, not all intolerance is oppressive.
There’s a substantial difference between intolerance and oppression.
What are the most important differences?
Oppression implies that there is an oppressor with some sort of power or control over the other party.
Intolerance is being unwilling to accept something.
So are you suggesting fascists and fascist movements should not be restrained via group with power and control over them but people just not accepting them is fine?
No. I’m suggesting that just because a person is intolerant doesn’t mean that they’re oppressive.
All oppression is intolerant, not all intolerance is oppressive.
