a crash course in polite conversation

I am random, but organisedly so. I love House, the man and the show. My family, no matter how odd, is awesome. I will not lie to you, I will, however, avoid answering you if I can. I do yoga, I read, I hardly ever turn on my television. I love music and hate cliches until after their popularity has passed. The only pasttime I have kept up with for very long, except for reading and yoga, is dropping pasttimes. I excel at that...

I'm sorry, but you are just as bad as those you call 'Nazi' if you advocate violence. Tearing down statues and calling everyone who is mildly right wing nazis isn't going to do anything but fuel the real extremists motivation. Who counts as a nazi in your view?

anyone who advocates for genocide, wears swatsikas, chants nazi slogans and anyone who is apologetic towards this behaviour is a nazi in my eyes. tearing down a statue is not comparable with taking/wanting to take human lives.
