      Patri Friedman Retweeted Sad Squiggly Ghost Strangled Nicely on a Sunny Day

      1/ Ok, I agree that the line between good and evil falls exactly between "advertising for Jordan Peterson" and "advertising for Stefan Molyneux". BUT it's insane hypocrisy for the left to criticize the right for...recruiting from the desperate and suffering.https://twitter.com/MrHappyDieHappy/status/967027082537721856 …

      Sad Squiggly Ghost Strangled Nicely on a Sunny Day @MsHappyDieHappy
      NOBODY is talking about how the online depression community has been infiltrated by alt-right recruiters deliberately preying on the vulnerable. There NEED to be public warnings about this. 'Online pals' have attempted to groom me multiple times when at my absolute lowest.

      It's not "the Right" recruiting that's an issue, it's the Nazis recruiting. Which is pretty explicitly what the alt-Right is, with their conventions straight-arm shouting "Heil Trump" and marches alongside Nazi flags.

      It's one thing to tell people, "Our platform aims to help people like you: join us in making that real!" It's another to tell them, "Jews and Mexicans and Blacks are responsible for your suffering: join us in hatred and we'll drive them out!"

      Wow. It is amazing how strong political blinders are. Try "Women, racial minorities, poor: you suffer, not because the world is complex and hard to fix, but because the selfish 1%, the evil patriarchy, and privileged white males oppress you. Fight Back!"

      Show me the feminist Auschwitz, Patri. Show me the feminist lynching trees. Nazis and the Klan are not part of normal partisan politics, or at least, they weren't at any point in my lifetime before Trump. Seeing you treat them as if they are is pretty terrifying.

      I can show you many Communist Auschwitzes. Please consider that for my entire lifetime, people have worn Communist flags and Che shirts, and ***it has been treated as normal***. That is terrifying!!! I'm glad you're finally terrified too - I just wish your terror was bipartisan.pic.twitter.com/Bu1THf25Zm

      I didn't ask you for Communist Auschwitzes: I know they're out there (and I find it pretty gross when people wear Che shirts). But your post that I was responding to was equating *feminism* with Naziism. For god's sake, Patri.

      Replying to @steuard

      I see nothing in my post that equates feminism with Nazism. I made the abstract point that for a leftist to say "it's evil to target suffering people to recruit for your political cause" is hypocritical, since that's a core leftist methodology. How do you make that leap?

          Replying to @patrissimo

          You claimed that the proper parallel to the alt-Right's "Jews and Mexicans and Blacks are responsible for your suffering" was the left's "..., the evil patriarchy, and privileged white males oppress you". That's directly asserting parallel status between Nazism and feminism.

          I think it's perfectly reasonable for a political organization to make a case that its platform is beneficial to a given societal group. I think it's horrible for a hate group (they're Nazis, Patri) to target people with actual mental illness as recruits for their evil.
