Come on that's completely ridiculous. By that same token you could judge the left as a whole off of the actions and arguments of those who claim all white people are racist and it's impossible for black people to be racist, or those who actually defend communism as a good ideology, or those on feminist frequency claiming that political violence is a necessity, or the spreading of the wage gap myth. As somebody on the left who rejects all of those things, I would find it absurd for me to be judge based on the actions and stances of other people also on the left.This idea of collective guilt, that you can say "this person is a hypocrite, so therefore it's okay for me to judge other people on their political wing based on this persons actions" is ridiculous. And I have no love for conservative ideology, and in fact find a lot of conservative stances regressive, but judging conservatives on the whole based on Surtur is not a fair judgement.
Surtur is at the bottom end of the intellectual gene pool, it would be unfair to judge all conservative's by his opinions. 🙁
