The response isn’t “eh”. The response is disagreement.
No, anything less than “that’s fucked up and fuck you for as long as you believe that” isn’t disagreement, it’s disinterest. You’re looking at views as just abstract paintings someone hangs on their wall; they’re not, a person’s views inform the way they act. Most beliefs you’re absolutely fine to say “no I don’t like that one” and not look at it, but keep hanging out at the house.
The painting in this case is the gas chambers, it’s the people making lists of of other people for Nazis to kill, it’s the public beatings and total lack of freedom and justice for all. It’s not a painting of those things, these beliefs are those things. It’s not abstract at all, and it’s not compatible with how free and open cultures work at a fundamental level.

Why? It accurately describes what society is.
