i know it’s a year late, but how in the hell does ferguson blow this out of the water? the best i could find was a column by ferguson blasting someone else who compared the british to stalin. from ferguson’s argument:

“No one disputes that the authorities in Kenya used exceptional violence during the 1950s.”

ferguson admits they were bastards, but goes godwin and argues, “at least we weren’t hitler”.

it’s almost exactly as dolan said, find a straw man and argue against that.
