Had this conversation with someone who chose to no longer be at my table after meeting a blind NPC
Another player who was at the table during the incident sent me this meme after the problem player in question (they had a history) left the group chat.
Felt like sharing it here because I'm sure more people should keep this kind of thing in mind.
I just got here, but I'd guess it's because their comment reads like they are saying "no, facists aren't the bad guys, both sides show contempt for the weak sometimes!" It's a false balance fallacy.
I'm not sure if that was the intention, or it was just unfortunately worded.
It depends on what the author was actually trying to say. I've never pretended to know what their intention was, and they haven't added any further commentary to let us know.
I took it personally because you've put that "implying Nazis were not as bad" part as if it's normal thought process. It's really not, I only see such when the one expressing it has already made up their mind and is just trying to silence\condemn the initial commenter. I haven't ever seen that IRL being expressed sincerely. It's always "burn the witch".
