      this is as stupid of a take as saying, “violence is bad!” towards someone bloodied and bruised who just defended themselves from an attack.

      Self defense is different than drunkenly flattening a pedestrian lmao

      Jumping back here to say that

      we need to ALWAYS remember the sheer depravity other human beings are capable of.

      Is the only thing I’m saying

      You’re arguing against things I did not say nor imply. I have made no argument here against self defense nor for civility.

      I am abiding the paradox of tolerance by not tolerating dehumanizing rhetoric. Because I believe that rhetoric enables fascism.

          You need to work on your reading comprehension. I have said absolutely nothing about whether or not to celebrate the death of a nazi, neither does the paradox of tolerance.
