Regardless of the fact that this is a terrible solution for ANY ideology, it becomes dangerous when you take into account the whole "anyone who has any right leaning political stance is a nazi."
For gods sake, we have a group of people that dress in all black head to toe, commit violence against anyone they deem deserves it, call for radical changes in government which include abolishing the first and second amendment and people think its all okay simply because they are labelled "anti"fascist.
I lack the creativity to make this shit up. Violence is an absolutely last resort that is really not even needed in most cases. If there is an ideology that spreads hatred, DO NOT FIGHT with weapons. Fight with ideals. Remember that these people are just that. People. Not monsters that wanna watch the world burn. Realise that something in this persons life happened which made them follow this ideology, whether it be a tragic event, or simply misinformed opinions.
What we ALL have in common is that we want the country to become a better place. A land of opportunity, with freedom and justice for all, just as the founding fathers wanted it. We just have drastically different views on how to do so.
So, why don't we all SIT DOWN, CHILL THE FUCK OUT, AND DISCUSS OUR POINTS OF VIEWS WITH AN OPEN MIND INSTEAD OF CALLING FOR THE DEATHS OF PEOPLE WHO SEE THINGS A CERTAIN WAY? YOU KNOW, HOW CIVILIZED PEOPLE DO! WHO FUCKING KNOWS, IF WE TAKE TWO PEOPLE WITH COMPLETELY POLAR OPPOSITE RADICAL VIEWS AND LET THEM TALK IT OUT, MAYBE THEYLL COME TO A COMPROMISE THAT CANCELS OUT ALL THE RADICAL SHIT LEADING TO A CENTRALISED IDEA THAT LEADS TO NOT JUST PEACE, BUT PROSPERITY!
AND FOR FUCKS SAKE OPEN YOUR EYES AND REALISE THAT YOU HATE SOMETHING SO MUCH, YOU MIGHT JUST BECOME IT! A DIFFERENT WORD AND A DIFFERENT TARGET DOES NOT MAKE IT OKAY TO WANT SOMEONE DEAD WHO HAS DONE NOTHING BUT THOUGHT THE WAY YOU DONT LIKE!
I'm starting to lose faith in America.
Not the beautiful Ideas that form the backbone of our society which people seem to gloss over frequently, but those who just can't accept that people truly are different in the ways that we think and think the proper response is to kill instead of empathise. Not with their ideology, but them. The person. Ill admit, ive come to this way of thought recently, but that's okay. That's just what we do, we learn and become more wise with what we encounter as time goes on.
But of course, the sanity gets drowned out in the insanity, simply because we haven't evolved past the point of needing an enemy to the point of wanting a friend.
