    Iona Italia Retweeted Jorge Tamez

    This is your brain on anti-SJW ideology. I am a fierce critic of the excesses of the social justice left. But Bolsonaro is a fascist. His irresponsible attitude towards the rainforest is a threat to the planet & his extreme homophobia a threat to our LGBT Brazilian neighbours.https://twitter.com/NoOneCorrectMe/status/1081267286021996550 …

    Unreal, here's Dave Rubin speaking favorably of Bolsonaro on various aspects including "getting rid of the SJW stuff in schools" This would be sad if DR wasn't rolling in cash from far-right fascists @_michaelbrooks @AnaKasparian @cenkuygur @SamSeder pic.twitter.com/O2MeCdJzRZ

        A person with a bad ideology can do some good things. The good things do not make up for the bad ones, but that does not make the good things bad. One can comment about both the good and the bad of bad politicians.

        He's not "taking SJW stuff out of schools." He wants them to teach that homosexuality is an abomination.

        I agree that a bad person can do good things. This is how I feel about Devos restricting title IX. A president eradicating criticism in Universities by force is not a good thing.

        A bad person can do good things. But Bolsonaro has so far failed to propose any. This is man who wants all his political enemies put to death. Literally.

        My knowledge on this guy is shallow. Sounds like I need to dig up some data, from a historical fact-search perspective (if such a thing is available).

        Often those who correctly criticize SJWs are incapable of differentiating SJ from actual human rights or real ethical issues or evaluating source material. Rubin and Saad types. Peterson is becoming one.

        Wanting homosexuals to be imprisoned or put to death isn't "being right about X."

        That completely and I suspect intentionally misses the message of my tweet, but I’ll put it plain anyway. A person can be horribly, utterly wrong on one thing and yet be correct on another. But you maybe intentionally missed the point so you could respond with a sound bite.

        Bolsonaro, however, has not been correct on ANYTHING. And describing homosexuality as an abomination is not "removing SJW stuff from schools."

        Then rebut the arguments that Rubin quoted directly, not their origin as a substitute. You shouldn’t need this laboriously spelled out to you by a random on Twitter if you’re engaging honestly with ideas here.

        Then I guess we’re done here. For observers, “this is your brain on” fallacious reasoning and failure to engage honestly/directly with claims.

        I engaged directly & honestly with Rubin's claims about Bolsonaro. I am sorry. I cannot make him into a hero for you. He simply is NOT.

        What explains the 'kissy-face' maneuver, do you think? I have been operating on the assumption that the gentleman is just not very smart or informed beyond his prejudices.

        I'm seriously beginning to think he's just not very intelligent. Bolsonaro wants gay men imprisoned or killed. There's no way Rubin could support that seriously.

        He's definitely a homophobe which is bad enough but I very much doubt he is this extreme.

        Listen to his own declarations! I mean, it's possible he doesn't believe what he himself says. But if we take him at his word, he *is* this extreme.
