       I mean, we still have a chance to make our enemies realise that
       their political philosophy is wrong, if we explain to them with
       more rational arguments. That's the purpose of discussion, to
       make people aware and realize the truth. If we just ordering our
       opponents to emigrate or move out, then the discussion between
       us and them is no longer useful.
       If we can more rationalize the reason that westernization, adult
       supremacy and racial discrimination are wrong, I'm sure they
       will change their worldview. I'm already did it with my
       oppressive parents with your arguments few years ago
       Hitler already proved this. With his rational arguments, 90
       percents of German people chosen and obeyed him without needed
       to emigrate

       Your mission is to turn Australia into Nusantaran lebensraum.
       You can try to figure out if this can realistically be done
       through rational arguments alone. (Good luck with that.)

       I've gotten hundreds of messages like this.
       Again, we can imagine the right-wing version of this, and I
       haven't seen anything remotely similar to that on this website.
       The claims from the NYT and others about "hate speech" are
       simply false. They are lying on purpose.

       Empty threats serve no use if they are not followed through
       with. But then again, the subhuman "Nazi" in question allegedly
       lives in Russia, so that will be hard to do.

       Anthony Hopkins celebrates 47 years of sobriety: 'I have found a

       --- Quote ---
       > Anthony Hopkins celebrated a big milestone on Thursday as
       marked 47 years of sobriety. The Oscar-winning actor reflected
       on his battle with alcoholism in an inspiring video message and
       urged people to seek help if they are struggling. Hopkins, who
       turns 85 on Saturday, said getting sober saved his life.
       >
       > "I'm celebrating 47 years today of sobriety," the acclaimed
       actor began. "This is a message not meant to be heavy, but I
       hope helpful. I am a recovering alcoholic. And to you out there
       — I know there are people struggling. In this day and age of
       cancel and hatred and non-compromise, children being bullied, I
       say... Be kind to yourself. Be kind. Stay out of the circle of
       toxicity with people, if they offend you. Live your life. Be
       proud of your life..."

       Do not the adulterated bully children more than any other in
       this world?
       But Sir Anthony, why compromise with bullies and why not cancel
       bullies once and forever so no other innocents need be turned
       into alcoholics because of bullies and their existence? What's
       if being a bully was in people's blood, expressed in varying
       degrees dependent on circumstance and environment?
       Does 'turning the other cheek' really work to stop bullies in
       the long run?
       Hopkins; The Man Who Still Isn't Hannibal Lecter
       --- Quote ---
       > Not that he is complaining. ''Hannibal,'' the sequel to ''The
       Silence of the Lambs,'' appeared well on its way to hitting $100
       million at the box office this weekend, and the Lecter
       character, with its cannibalistic menace, has clearly struck a
       powerful minor-key chord with the public. But Sir Anthony is,
       admittedly, undeniably, understandably, burnt out on talking
       about the movie, defending the movie, on answering for Hannibal
       Lecter altogether.

       If you're going to eat someone, is it not better to eat the
       guilty than the innocent? Who are the truly guilty in this
       world?
       When will Hopkins finally redeem himself before the true and
       living and become Lecter in the flesh?  :)
       Lastly, I trust Hopkins understanding of what a bully is more
       than most other human-beings, although not at all near perfect
       understanding! Reminder:

       Hopkins would be better off going full vegan in regards to
       non-humans and eating human-beings whenever he gets the craving
       for fish, especially in the mind of the almighty! ;)
       (I probably wouldn't need to drink as of late if I didn't see
       human-being flaws as easily as I do, especially the real
       bullying!).

       your hair and only open the door on the chain if they persist in
       ringing the bell and say, “Why are you here? I'm busy.”
       Regardless of the excuse they give, you say that you're busy and
       need to go. Say “Goodbye.” Close and lock the door.

       advance about the unwanted person so they can let you know if
       the uninvited person turns up. Perhaps designate a few people to
       answer the door in case you are elsewhere, and tell them to
       leave that person on the porch and come to find you if he shows
       up. Be firm and tell them to leave if they manage to get inside.
       Have your backup group and a phone ready if you suspect that the
       person will not leave quietly.

       Contrary to the liberals who always say that we can't blame
