He’s not wrong. Ads are targeted to YOU (the user). If some particular ad is coming up next to nazi content, it’s a good chance YOU prefer nazi content.

I respectfully disagree because it depends on who “defines” the meaning of a label such as “Nazi”, “MAGA”, “progressive”, “racist”, “liberal”, “conservative”, etc. The word no longer means anything because it is overused as a pejorative.

Labels are used by both sides to sow division among people to increase the power of one group and decrease the power of their “opponent”. This is especially true in the politically charged environment we suffer today when one party cannot win a fact based argument. Conversation dies when people dismiss arguments based on such labels and it is pointless to debate with them.

If I am against illegal immigration of non-citizens to the US for many rational reasons that have nothing to do with “skin color” does this make me a “racist”? I fully support and have always supported merit based immigration regardless of superficial or geographical origins.

I don’t think we can have a rational conversation because our nation cannot even agree on what is “meritorious”. Half of our citizen view a superficial trait (skin color) as a merit when that is the very definition of “racism” to me. There is no more logic in this falsehood than that used to label me or you as a “Nazi” for supporting low taxes and small government, but that is the game.

We live in a time of exploding delusions and lies. This is Biblical and no politician or pundit can change it.

2 Timothy 4: 3-4 -— For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths.
