        Yeah, the ones who stand beside the tracks and say “it’s just awful that those people are being put in boxcars! Tsk tsk tsk! We should vote harder!”

        The radical fascist right- and their billionaire cronies- have been playing a long game without any pushback because they know you’ll lie down and be dorrmats and hope that some judge will save you. It started accelerating in 1996 and hasnt slowed down since.

          If you actively seek to murder people, I will actively ensure you are put in jail. I apply the same logic to fascists. Fascists only gain power throughout history when the left starts to actively degrade people’s lives. This is why the left historically has shifted to reform as the ethical approach and have gradually shifted more liberal.

          If you cannot convince anyone with your words, you certainly won’t with your violence.

            Liberals created fascism by embracing neoliberalism. There is no left in power in the US.

              If you use violence to bring about your preferred society, you enable violence as a tool of oppression by that society.
