  Telling other people to commit premeditate murder is.

    Anti-fascist action is self-defense.

      The Proud Boys and other militias believe the exact same thing, just swap anti-fascist for anti-traitors who want to destroy America. You’re advocating for violence just like they are, and both extremist sides are POSITIVE they’re doing the right thing.

        Fascists: I want systemic violence against anyone that isn’t a white cis het man.

        Leftists: I want violence against people who advocate for systemic violence against marginalised groups.

        Absolutely undistinguishable :p

        Not on the side of killing people here but one side wants to kill minorities and other groups while the other wants to kill people who want to kill minorities.

        Would you say painting WWII Nazis as evil and fighting a war against them is the same as them invading Poland to subjugate the natives?

    I didn’t tell anybody to commit murder. I’m just watching hopefully.

      Ok, I have those thoughts sometimes too. I usually cut them off right away because I don’t think I have the right to kill people outside of the context of a war etc. But regardless of moral implications, there’s nothing illegal about thinking.

      A lot of folks are calling for actual violence though. It’s all over the thread.

        I am genuinely curious why do you think that you have a right to kill someone in war but not outside of it. Like what are the main differences there (unless you are using law as a basis for this)

      Combatant is different. If this was a civil war or something similar (and thus ruled by laws of war) and someone was a combatant you’d be absolutely correct. But the people here are talking about killing a civilian, as civilians, while not at war, and without trial which is definitely murder.

        Who gets to decide it’s a civil war?
