It doesn't matter.

So when people reject what a thing it is still mainstream. Got it. Let me know when you have a convincing argument.

"So depravity is ok as long as a few people are doing it. "

I didn't say anything was OK.


You most certainly did. You stated twice that if a small minority that you pronounced to be a significant number were doing a thing it was mainstream.

Your arguments sound like the ones that must have been common to justify what was happening in Germany during the 1930's.

I'm arguing a definitional point--what constitutes "radical."


I get it. You would have believed that gassing Jews was mainstream in the 1930's and 1940's because it was being done, especially since it was being done by more than one country.

You don't have to like the logical extension of your argument, you only have to either live with it or disavow it.
