    Yeah, this makes sense. Would you feel better about the this: “It’s ok to punch fascists”? Using the common definition for all these terms. I know this is slightly different from what OP was posting about.

      It depends on the fascist? Common language suggests they’re, what? None of them have real political ideals.

      I’m good with punching people that use slurs or rhetoric to attack others,

        Fascists want power to hurt people. They think they are making the world a better place by “removing” a “bad” group of people.

        When do you start punching these people? If never, they are going to kill and harm a lot of people.

          So, you start punching when they get credibly threatening. We let them be fucky and loud and when it gets violent or close to, we do damage.

            Yes, I have no problem with that. I think we only need to target people who spread fascist ideology to a wide and/or large audience. The average fascist Joe, has very little reach and it would look bad if it seemed like random nobodies were being targeted.

            Edit: When I say the average fascist Joe. I mean the average person who is a fascists. Not anyone named Joe. Sorry for any confusion.
