I agree. I typically avoid absolute terms, but I enjoy the arguments these statements invite from conservatives. Even when given such an obvious opening, they usually have a tough time arguing against it.
Anger against conservatives is righteous anger and moral. Making verbal arguments is not “fights” as you are presenting it.
Picking fights is literaly the only way political change is possible. Being polite when political opponents are hostile on a philosophical level is counterproductive and self-destructive.
Memba when we asked England nicely to be our own country and it worked, then we eliminated slavery using only handshakes and gentlemen’s agreements, then there was no more racism but just for fun we passed the civil rights act not because we needed it but because it would be easy and we may as well write down the principles we all follow anyway

Going out of your way to pick fights makes you part of the problem.
Sitting idly by makes you complicit.
The problem is not me picking fights with racists. That’s the symptom. The problem is the existence of racists and those who defend racists.
Not making absolutist statements does not make you idle. It is wrong and misleads impressionable people. Don’t lie to support your cause.
