Y'know, there's a time to talk about how all people have capacity for great good and evil, how it's not that easy, etc, etc. And I really WANT to believe the alt right, fundies, MRA and MAGAs are redeemable, certainly I want them to benefit from a system which is kinder and better than what we have now.
But the thing is, whether *they're* innately evil or not doesn't matter, what matters is they're *doing* evil shit, *pushing* evil shit and *believing* in evil shit 300%.

And at some point, someone pulls enough egregious bullshit, you're within reason going look, this person's NOT gonna stop pulling egregious bullshit. There's room for self-preservation in this world.
"Accept that people are more nuanced than good vs evil" is wise, but when it comes from Jordan Peterson, my next question is "who are you trying to exonerate; why is that; and would you be saying the same thing if they were some group that aren't your fanbase, 'cause my guess is NO."
