True, just because one doesn't like something doesn't make it automatically wrong. It is also indeed good to stand up for what you believe in. You're right about that too.
However, to stand up for something that is quite likely lead to all kinds of very nasty stuff, and more importantly, which clearly IS bullshit is foolish.
PS: from your other comments I gather you don't think ANYTHING is wrong, correct?
"from your other comments I gather you don't think ANYTHING is wrong, correct?"
You are attentive I see. Yes I do have a "broader" moral perception, but I certainly do think there are things that are "wrong". I'm not cold to injustice, rather many peoples idea of what could be considered just.
I know that hate breeds hate. Hating a white supremacist will only strengthen his resolve to hate others.
I'm genuinely very interested. Could you please explain it to me? (in a nutshell if necessary, because I realize it might be quite some effort otherwise).
"I certainly do think there are things that are "wrong". I'm not cold to injustice"
I see, perhaps I misjudged you. Then again, defending the actions of a child killer does seem pretty cold to me. Could you please give a good example of something you consider to be wrong?
"Hating a white supremacist will only strengthen his resolve to hate others."
Probably, yes. I don't hate white supremacists though. A lot of them are actually good people, but - in my view - also misguided. I just despise what they stand for. There was a time when I sympathized with their views BTW. Not anymore.
Is it normal for my dad to be in a white supremacist movement?

I can't say if it is or isn't, just because I don't like something doesn't make it wrong.
