discourse, description of violence 

@xj9 let's use a smaller scale example: if someone is going to murder someone and the only practical way to stop them is violent, would stopping them make you as bad as the attempted murderer? If you believe the answer is yes, I'm afraid you might be a lost cause

discourse 

@xj9 if some1 publicly states that they advocate genocide I dont really see how discouraging them is bad? Its much easier to beat someone up when they're doing 'grassroots activism' than when they actually have control. There is nothing good/valid about fascism. There is no argument to be made for allowing it to exist. If people act on fascism LOTS OF PEOPLE WILL DIE and even if they dont theyre still ethically & scientifically wrong @ I dont get how thats suddenly a point of debate????

discourse 2 

@xj9 this isn't like some passive thing. These people go out & threaten randoms, they harass people on the internet and they're starting to gain traction in actual government. The people who think we should kill vast amounts of people for things that are negligable from a standpoint of actual human safety, & adopt the language & symbolism of those who have before. Fear is their language. The fastest & most effective way of getting them to crawl back in their hole is to make them hurt

discourse 3: still discourse 

@xj9 but you're coming off as like, hideously ignorant wrt these issues and you're erring on the "uwu hate crimes are free speech" side of things so I think I'm just gonna block you. Also if you're gonna sit on communism and socialism: Nazis used that word to get votes and there has never been a communist state & you'd know that if you knew any history or what that word means/the implications of the ideology.
Anyway Ive no interest in dragging this out so blocking ya

discourse 4: the crowdfunded one 

@xj9 here's a fun clue for you though: violence isn't just physical. Verbal harassment is violence, advocating genocide is violence and allowing atrocity to happen through inaction is violence. Know something bad is coming? Can do something about it? (something as simple as isolating and no-platforming these bozos?) and you don't do those things? You're using your position of power to inflict harm and that, by definition, is violence. Bye
