They're saying it's not something that should be up for debate, and it isn't on the same level as the examples on the left which reasonable people can disagree on.

It shouldn’t be a debate because the awnser is yes. There shouldn’t be a debate where the other side is “hating Jewish people and killing them by the millions is okay actually.” Yes the Nazis were a political party, but it’s not the 1930’s and we’re not voting on who becomes chancellor of Germany. There’s no debate to be had currently on whether they are bad. Because to any well adjusted human being, murdering a whole group of people is bad

I’m aware of what it’s attempting to get at, but please look at what it actually says, word-for-word. trying to describe any of those things as “not political” is insane

no shit it “shouldn’t be a debate”. whether something is “political” or not doesn’t remotely hinge on whether there Should or Shouldn’t “be a debate”. that’s simply not what the word means it shouldn’t be debatable that the Israeli genocide of Palestinians is wrong and a horrific atrocity, but whether someone supports Palestine or not is still a political issue

I already said I “got the point”, thanks. the issue is roughly 700 people cosigning that post without pausing to think critically about the terrible nonsensical wording

How can you say it's nonsensical when hundreds of people have made perfect sense of it?

because hundreds of people are embracing a wildly inaccurate definition of what “political” describes lol? not exactly common for hundreds of people to be wrong at the same time on social media, just disheartening to see

like it’s fine if I’m hurting some feelings by pointing this out but that doesn’t change the reality. words mean things

it’s not “my” definition, good lord. people have been saying “the personal is political” since the 70s, I am begging y’all to read some theory rather than taking “facebook auntie”-tier posts as fact

me being capable of understanding what the creator of the graphic was Attempting to get at, based on how it’s formatted, doesn’t mean the examples given are remotely accurate to the point it’s trying to make 👍

if you’re still struggling to grasp what’s wrong with the post, that’s not on me. not particularly interested in continuing to talk in circles with someone who’s posing vibes-based arguments without acknowledging the facts
