Brought this discussion up over dinner. Family divided 50:50, daughter (15) and I on one side vs. wife and son (23) on the other. The divide is real and doesn’t relate to age or gender :)

I am one of the primary victims of the genocidal ideology and I firmly maintain that punching Nazis is, in fact, bad

Unglaublich! Endlich kommt’s raus!
Feedback von Attila Hildmann in seinem Telegram-Kanal zu der-postillon.com/2020/09/hi… Hildmann lügt. Er muss natürlich behaupten, das an unserer Recherche nichts dran sei. Andernfalls dreht ihm Merkel den Geldhahn zu!!!

E.g. this very website we’re using. It does a few things with JS that could just as well be done with the other two, but not the other way around
I dispute that almost nobody uses them as they should. Anyway, the original point was that declarative languages inevitably grow into bad non-declarative ones, and I still maintain this isn’t true for HTML and CSS (even though I’ve often see it happen to home-grown languages)

Which makes them successful in being declarative. You’re not supposed to use them for everything. In fact, they’re rarely used beyond their original purpose, in contrast to JS :)

How is that HTML or CSS?

There was also a lot of tolerance, acceptance, and the belief the Nazis could be kept under control and wouldn’t turn out to be so bad after all

Maybe my take is different because the last time it mattered, my people missed the point in time when it became a necessity

Tolerance of the intolerant, Popper, etc. etc.

I think it’s because it’s more than just “disagreeable”. It’s about people who literally advocate killing you is sort of OK, or even preferable.

you have way too many people who know what “operator precedence” means among your followers

All true. I do worry about Nazis getting too much empathy more than about them (or innocent bystanders) getting punched too much, though. On a non-violent level, it’s a bit like arguing they deserve to be debated.

(Sorry, didn’t mean to highjack your explanation to provide my own. Yours is perfectly valid, of course.)

And finally, I think the Nazis are lost and won’t be convinced by anything, violent or not. Best to make sure everyone knows their behavior is of the deserves-punching kind.

And I have a really hard time feeling empathy for a punched Nazi. Or horror at the puncher, who only did what I would do if I had been raised a little differently.

To me, it’s a bit of a metaphor. I’m not a violent person and would personally not _actually_ punch a Nazi. I have as close to 0 tolerance as I can, though. And if I were the punching kind, this would not be limited to verbal attacks

Do you want to elaborate why you think so? I’d be interested.

I don’t really see this for HTML or CSS
