    “Bad things existed before, so we should not criticize them still existing today” is not a very strong argument.

        Uh huh which is why he simply illustrated the point being made and why its flawed lmao

        He’s responding to a meme criticizing this exact idea. So he’ll likely criticising that criticism and defending its position.

        This is like 5th grade level analysis bro it’s not that complicated

        But hey defend your guy. And the context is that you are defending that idea as well. Because why are you defending this and not every time someone reads into a comment? Likely because you have an issue with what he’s pointing out. Not like automatically but it pretty likely DOES mean that and that matters to people, which is why we concern ourselves with implications of things we say in the modern age, it reveals shit
