1527 || my fight with a bigot (a true story)

"He had sown chaos between me and my friend and he truly didn’t give a fuck. In fact, he looked like he was enjoying it. He was manipulating me and I was watching it happen but unaware of how to make it stop. I couldn’t let a man who didn’t deny being a nazi get away with this, but I truly had no idea how to stop him."

Later I learned, defusing and mediating and compromising ONLY works with people who are willing to compromise, mediate, and be defused. 

THE LESSON: DON’T DEBATE WITH FASCISTS, DON’T FEED THE TROLLS (THE ONLY WAY TO DEFEAT A FASCIST IS TO SHAME + FIGHT)
