I wish you would be fucking useful and cut out the liberal hand wringing bootlicking bullshit. you sound like a CNN news pundit. you probably had a moment of silence for Charlie Kirk, didn't you, you limp noodle centrist.
Your accusations are empty.
Charlie kirk was a hateful person, and so is the commenter I'm replying to.
Part One: How Nice, Normal People Made The Holocaust Possible.
How is this related to this conversation exactly ?
So because I dont condone killing random people I dont like or agree with, then I let the Holocaust happen ?
Are you sure you understand what my criticism of violence is ?
naivety. or willful ignorance. you're from what, France? your very existence is the result of violence wrought upon millions of enslaved peoples. your nation still has enslaved colonies. and now you're turning your nose up at a little more violence to make the world a better place? you think this faux pacifism makes you a better person?
you wallow in your bloody self-entitled privilege like a fat little genocidal piggy. the very least of violent leftist activists is a far better person than you will ever be, you self-righteous liberal hack.
I'm not responsible of my ancestors violence.
It's a simple concept.
You are blaming me for the violence other commited and then point out at the other commenter that encourage people to commit murder on people he doesn't like and now that is fine. I'm the bad guy here for being born in a country that commited atrocities in its past many generations before me. Should I blame modern Americans for the history of slavery of the country ? The whole argument is so dumb.
Sure thing. If anything can be collectively learned from our common history is that sometimes you just need a little bit more violence to make things right... What a joke.
Violence brings... more violence. Also when people see someone dear to them getting assassinated, what do you think they will seek ? Revenge. More violence.
I can absolutely respect any ideology as long as it respects human life. Saying people should be "luigi" because you think they are a bad human being is not ok. But again, for some people the death penalty is ok. For most countries in the world it's a barbaric practice that should have been long gone.
So yeah, I will always call out people when they encourage for violence and especially when they quite literally encourage assassination without even a mere trial or any opportunity to defend themselves.
It's so much simpler to just execute someone, nevermind if they might be innocent. And I dare you to tell me no innocent ever got the death penalty. And that was despite a ""trial"".
But here you got an anarchist saying capitalists should be killed by others and that it is "self defence" because of their crime against climate and nobody bats a fucking eye. This is the new normal, let's eliminate people I don't like. And then you dare tell me that I would sit idle when the Holocaust comes ? But the way I see it, the holocaust is done and acted upon by people just like you. People that sit on the sideline and encourage others to do their violent bidding.
If you want a revolution and to fight ideas, fight them with your own ideas. Killing a bunch of capitalists at random will not destroy the ideology. And no, a little bit more violence is not what we need to make the world a better place.
typical liberal "both sides are equally bad" when talking about leftists and child molesting Nazis.
