Oh my god, it is almost like people use memes to communicate ideas that are different than the original source.
Not all violence is equal. The only way to stop a Nazi is to bash them. If you deny that, you're a liberal which is a fascist collaborator. You're going to sleep walk your way into Nazism.
There's another, more effective and less violent and non-solipsistic way. A great deal of the power of fascism stems from their economic position. Guys like Zuck and Elon are dangerous because of their enormous wealth, not merely because of their toxic political views.
And since you can't just Luigi Mangione the problem of economic elitism, you need collective action at an economic level to starve out the beast.
Incidentally, the "starve the beast" strategy is a conservative approach historically espoused and employed by Grover Norquist, Tom DeLay, and now (via the guise of DEI) Bill Ackman, Peter Thiel, and Donald Trump. Its incredibly effective, because it eliminates the ability of the opposition to effectively organize and administer large groups of professionals.
Plenty of broke Nazis out there...
They're not the ones in the White House flipping switches
You're a right wing troll undermining the leftist message.
If you think nonviolence is core to the left wing, you need to go ahead and find a nice subreddit to join. Liberals aren't left wing.
Liberals are left wing and theyre only non violent when its unnecessary
Nice deflection. Nothing about leftism or anarchism involves eschewing violence. Read some fucking theory lib. You're spewing liberal bullshit designed to empower fascists. You have to fight to win, so you've already lost, loser.
I always love these "conversations".
You're a right wing troll.
You came out swinging defending someone suggesting we murder leftists in response to a meme talking about the necessity of armed resistance against fascism.
Nope. You don't even believe that. Your CIA handler told you to pretend to believe it.
The person you were defending outright suggested this meme, violence as a measure to stop fascism, be extended to Leftists. What did you mean to do?
What point were you making then? You said violence against Nazis is bad because it's violent, yet were fine with the person advocating violence against Leftists. Accusing everyone who understands that the Nazis have only ever been stopped violently of being handled by the CIA is pure wrecker tactics.
You're a liberal troll

I'm a right wing troll because I want to... checks notes: protect myself, my family and my community against fascists and right wingers.
