We must reject the notion that there are "good people on both sides" of a hate rally. It is our responsibility to denounce hate and hold those accountable who promote it.
What is a False Equivalency?
A false equivalency is a logical fallacy in which two things are presented as equal, even though there is no basis for the comparison. It is frequently used to make the actions of hate groups seem less harmful than they are.
Why False Equivalencies are Harmful
False equivalencies undermine the severity of hate and discrimination. They ignore the fact that hate groups seek to harm marginalized communities and promote a culture of hate and violence.
