this is worded badly. the not political issues should be things like “is it weird and gross for our government to post thirst traps about dehoming people” “should our president have his own social media platform and should he be allowed to post rants on twitter” “is it wrong to generalize an entire race on certain behavior that is caused from socioeconomic issues (brought on from systemic racism)”

One of these columns are local government issues. The other is a rage-bait to make conservatives mad and cry. Either way, one of these makes no sense to even call “political” and the other is just a bunch of stupid nonsense. “Are war crimes bad?” WHAT DO YOU THINK? Jfc. OP is clearly not very bright if they’re posting this.

this is kinda semantic cuz everything is political in some capacity. i think the intent of the meme is to say that social politics / culture war issues (such as support for naziism, racism, misogyny) should not be entertained in any political platforms because it's not deserving of consideration beyond flat out rejection

well... many racists don't actively think "black people are inferior" but they do on a subconscious level. you're basically saying "this is useless because they won't admit to that" but... that's not the point? we're not trying to convince them racists they're racist or misogynists they're misogynistic - were reaffirming our position. and yeah it is a feel good meme for the left. people on the left should feel good that they reject racism, misogyny, homophobia, etc.. i don't see the problem

the original post is “black people are bad” not inferior. i clarified that its more nuanced then that, yes many extreme-right people are genuinely, hatefully racist, but much more are just ignorant/dumb. “black people are bad” represents an observation among both groups. the majority of that observation is based on semantics, primarily that a lot of people think all/most black people act a certain way and that it must be because of their race, theyre too stupid to understand race doesnt affect

saying/thinking/believing "black people are bad" is functionally no different than "black people are inferior". you wouldn't say the former if you didn't in some capacity believe in the latter. if those people thought white and asian and latin people were also bad that saying would have no meaning or functional purpose

The connotations of saying “Nazis are bad” when nazism hasn’t been an issue since World War II implies that OP is calling more people Nazis than are actually Nazis. It’s like saying “Black lives matter.” Obviously that statement in a vacuum is true but anyone who is saying that isn’t saying it in a vacuum, they are saying it in the context of a leftist movement that reasonable people take issue with. Y’all’s use of “Nazi” here is textbook equivocation.

When she was asked directly how she felt about Nazi she side stepped the question and wouldn’t answer it. That’s the easiest “I hate nazis” or “Nazi are bad” answer ever. Yet she wouldn’t even give it. If you aren’t willing to denounce evilness that says something about you as a person.
