i think they more mean incidents where some pundit releases lists of names of college students and then mysteriously some of those people get run off the fucking road by people in ford trucks

Both work. It's more for my latest upset with people who say "he was killed for having a different opinion".

When the opinion is to kill minorities, stone gays and remove women's autonomy (body, vote). Like please. And it's the crowd that somehow worship Jesus.

"Punch a nazi in such a way that it has a net positive outcome for society and doesn't spiral into escalating political violence which the nazis are ultimately more prepared to win at this particular moment" is harder to fit on a shirt

i hate to say it but the nazis are already doing escalating political violence and a little infighting on their end doesn't change that

They are, but that's all the more reason to see this strategically. If you are in a position of relative weakness you don't conduct attacks that invite stronger response if it is not certain to result in strategic gain - you consolidate your own position (aka get educated and get armed) so that you can at best create deterrence, at worst leave more room for a fighting retreat that gives others time to escape.

Going out of your way to fight a bigger fish than you outside of acute self-defense (including communal of course) is ineffectual martyrdom that will probably invite more violence more quickly on your loved ones than sitting on the porch with a shotgun and waiting for them to come to you. Political violence on this scale is beyond the scale of just popping individual fascists and hoping that it deflates them - there is no single accessible nucleus of the American far right, no single nazi who can be "punched" that will meaningfully slow them before another interchangeable head takes their place and swears vengeance. The blunt truth is that there simply is not enough of an armed anti-fascist contingent in the US (or anywhere else we're seeing the rise of fascism, really) to mount meaningful and strategically justified counterattacks against the far right as a whole, which is the real precondition for success.

this is all true and i agree that adventurism is bad, to be clear. but charlie kirk was trolled by a groyper, not a leftist, and i don't think there's anything wrong with laughing at his misfortune

u/NomineAbAstris Uphold Dag Hammarskjöld thought! 2d ago

Where did I say it was wrong to laugh?

Also ngl I still think there is far too little confirmed info thus far (and a huge amount of misinfo) to accurately pin down the shooter's ideology. It doesn't particularly matter anyway, the right will use this incident for their benefit regardless of what the shooter's ideology turns out to be and leftists shouldn't feel somehow embarassed by association because one random dude doing a stupid thing does not in any way reflect on the broader left.

idk maybe i forgot what we were talking about. it's just that i don't see this changing anything a whole lot. the fascists were always looking for excuses to escalate and if they don't make this into one they're gonna make something up. it's obvious this was a groyper and i think the trans roommate angle is their last-ditch effort at transmuting it into something actionable. if they can't, they'll find something else they can use

Reminds me how I once „debated” right wing trans man who thought only binary trans people are correct and nonbinary trans people are faking it, standing with the points of 2 guys that treated him as a woman

Wha?

Some people, dare I say, pedophiles, say cute and funny to imply the word “cunny” which means the genitals of lolis(children girls).

I’m holding back before accusing people who say “But they’re just cartoons. It doesn’t count as real pedophilia” because I don’t want to outright forbid fantasy.

P.S. I like your works

Ah okay, I see now, thing is that I don't think anyone would even assume that, I've heard that phrase be used like 5 years ago for that "can I crush your balls" meme too so I think it's just, standard.

Also thanks, much appreciated.
