When It Pays to Talk to Terrorists

I’m not talking moral relativism. I’m staying that the term is relative to the group you are applying it to. That says nothing about morality. It’s a way to differentiate group elements.

Let me put it this way and then I have to sign off for a bit:

If you have some country filled with and run by hateful assholes how do you change that, assuming mass murder is off the table? I would start by trying diplomacy with the least hateful people. Those people, in relation to the others, are that country’s moderates. You deal with the least extreme people.

If you have a better label for the least extreme people within a group propose it so we can move past discussing and attacking others over terminology.
