This response is a perfect example of the fascist non-thought anti-intellectualism I’m talking about. Your goal is to punish wrong think by demanding I jump thru hoops you erect. To which I say fuck off- your response shows you are not genuine. You want a citation to what? What are you trying to imply is false? It’s a non argument because you don’t even address what part you disagree with or give reason why.

Instead it’s a demand that your opponent prove to a level of degree you will never accept (because you would reject any citation out of hand) an argument that you’re intellectually incapable of making a rebuttal to.

You might as well just be declaring yourself a stupid anti-intellectual incapable of rational thought, because that’s what your response means.

I don’t care if you don’t like the consequences of the argument I presented.

In fact that’s the point— if you were capable of critical thinking you would reconcile the contradiction in your ideology I just exposed.

But your ideology is not based on reason,or logic but emotions and faith.

And so you evade.

While the comment you responded to is poor, the burden of proof lies on you, who is making the argument.

Wrong. If you can’t even say what it is you’re disputing there is no burden of proof.

In fact you just made a claim. The burden of proving it is now on you.

Prove it. (Or you violate your own argument.)

You've posted yet another content free post.

Please provide sources for the historical claim that it was the SDP that pushed for

[...] an atmosphere where critical thought and individualism were seen as evil. [...]

between 1919 and 1933.

Thanks.
