Who are we to say that the same logic can't apply here as what the left argued in the Dylan Roof case?

Speaking of Roof... I thought tearing down all of these monuments was supposed to make the lefties happy. What happened?

Good to see the hysterical lunacy of this morning is still going on this afternoon.

You mean the overreaction by companies like Amazon after the Roof shooting?

Hopefully, all schools will scrub Bernie from their yearbook photos.

Amazon is trying to give anyone on welfare discounted access to Prime.

Why do you do this? Why do you assume all Bernie supporters think like he did? I just don't get it. The actions of one a-hole...

I don't. I'm pointing out the dangers of generalization and the hypocrisies that can end up being a result. Many of the left clearly argued that those who support the public and/or private display of the Confederate flag condoned Roof's actions and that to allow the display of such images in the future would bring pain to the victims. If we use the logical endpoint of that train of logic, why can't we extrapolate that to Bernie and socialism now with today's attack?

They shouldn't be using that logic. You are using it because they used it. That's bandwagon fallacy.

You can. It just puts you on on the same intellectual and emotional level as "the left". No difference between you if you utilize their logic when it's convenient.

But it's certainly the easiest reaction to have.

I'm not utilizing their logic. I don't think Bernie and socialist merchandise should be pulled from Amazon. I don't think confederate merchandise should have been pulled from Amazon. I am just pointing out the dangers of the kneejerk stereotyping that was on display in the Amazon/Confederate flag case.
