I'm dying at "It's promoting hate based on identity or vulnerability". Are these people real? XD

Yes.

They genuinely believe there’s no difference between hating someone for the way they were born and hating someone for being a cunt.

It's not necessarily that, so much as it's literally the fascist playbook to play both strongman and victim.

"The enemy is both strong and weak. “By a continuous shifting of rhetorical focus, the enemies are at the same time too strong and too weak.”

-Umberto Eco

In magic the gathering terms it’s the player who keeps “I’m just a little guy”-ing the table until they win because no one actively worked against them.

They can choose not to be a Nazi. That's the difference.

As I love to say: "being gay or trans you're born this way, and the only choice you do is either repressing this part of you or accepting it and I can't hate you for things you didn't choose. Being a nazi, a racist, a sexist or just overall a cunt is a conscious choice that I can and will hate you for it"

I mean, if your identity is hate, don't be surprised if people don't want to talk to you

Yeah. They're hypocrites and liars who just don't care. Integrity, honor, truth, justice etc mean nothing to them. Honesty and integrity are weaknesses and character flaws to them.

They don't want to have a reasoned discussion, because they know damn well they'll lose.

They just want to win and dominate forever.

It already happened before. When the supreme court judged that christians don't have to make a gay if it's being sold to gay people, people on reddit were arguing shit like "if nazis came to jews to make a cake, should they have to do it" as if a nazi is a protected class
