Who is the canary in the coal mine?
What is it warning me in advance of?
Plz explain.
When did I make that comparison? I never said the professors in the OP were like the guy who killed people.
I just called them out for calling for white genocide. Then you said that me calling them out was a d*** move and if I got bit I had it coming
Heather heyer was also calling out people she felt were calling for genocide. She got bit. So by your logic she had it coming.
Either people that call out others that call for genocide are being jerks that are to blame if they are attacked, or they are not. You say they do have it coming and are jerks, I say they are not.

What?
If an individual has a grievance, than they can petition for resolutions and work through the courts like the rest of us.
If you are saying that murderers or rapists should be let out of prison early because they have a certain skin color - than no they should not.
Individuals face individual criminal charges, and if by random chance one race disproportionately end up in prison maybe we should address why that race is committing crimes and violating other people so much more than other races? None should be released early or ignored.
Like for example maybe something cultural promotes crime and suggests violence solves problems, or to just take things that belong to other people, etc?
Why are some individual people justifying violence, theft, rape, etc and then turning around and acting like they are the victim? Why would they then want to genocide entire races to justify their own criminal behaviour?
This psychotic belief system is held by people of all racial types so don't think it's just them or the others, anyone can start thinking stupid crazy stuff.

Depends on the situation and the context.

You compared the two situations. Are you now going to admit the two situations are not comparable and it was nothing more than a dick move play on emotions and other fallacies?
Because there is a lot more context to the situations that make them quite different.
No. I said that poking the dog over and over and then complaining about getting bit was the dick move.
Make sure you are honest about context, please.
No one ever has it coming, in regards to physical violence.
Perhaps she deserved to get her ass reamed by one of the white supremacists, and that would be applicable to this situation, but not as you have framed it.
Your approach is illogical and inapplicable.
Depends on the situation and the context.

So calling for genocide is only bad depending on the context?
Interesting. So only people you hate are acceptable genocide victims, and people you like aren't.
I guess you're an out in the open racist now? I didn't know so I'm pretty shocked.
You should change your mind and learn to love others and be tolerant, regardless of context.

Could you give me a few examples of when its ok to call out genocide, and when its a d*** move?
Thanks!
The difference is in the result.
You say this thread is a d*** move and if I get but its my fault.
I say this thread is me calling out genocide and refusing to hear out people that call for it. I say Heather Heyer called out genocide and refused to hear people out calling for it. That is the similarity. Explain to me why this thread is a jerk move and its my fault if I get but, but Heather Heyers did not.
So people like Heyer who friends admitted frequently called out white supremacist also would have been poking the dog over and over, and so therefore the people complaining about what happened to her as a result of that is a d*** move.
Oh so now you admit she deserved to be admonished! Wow. And dont back down now. Your exact words were "They then proceed to tell everyone "see, I told you the dog was a viscous animal", not realizing that it was their fault the dog lashed-out." So if violence happens to me or heather or anyone else who repeatedly calls out people who advocate geneocide, its our fault.
The act of condemning calls of genocide is never a d*** move, and if violence is visited on the person calling it out, it is never their fault.

It's ok to call out genocide when genocide actually takes place.
What genocide has taken place in this example?
Your example said when the dog bites me, its my fault. So now you are saying that by bite you only meant words, not a physical action? Strange choice of words. I would think you would have said when the dog barks at me, I deserve it, instead of bite.
But its cool, you need to backtrack because you see how repugnant your argument is.
At least we have you on record saying heather heyer was doing a d*** move and deserved to be yelled at.
Good stuff!
