I see little acceptance and little planning. Just… blame immigrants, and grow the economy, that seems to be the mantra that’s won out.

    Take the heads off of any leaders not trying to solve this problem.

        How about you go back to licking boots and I’ll go back to calling for the heads of the people who wear them? Eh? Sound okay to you there little buddy?

          Ewww, advocating violence isn’t a good look for you or Lemmy.

            Defending the people who are fucking all of us makes you look like a truly ignorant pos.

              I haven’t “defended” anyone who is “fucking all of us.”

              Advocating violence makes people look like a truly ignorant pos. Also is a quick way to get Lemmy instances shut down.

        Defending the violent is also advocating for violence. It’s just against many powerless people, and more indirect.

        There are people who are responsible for rendering our only world uninhabitable. By refusing to even entertain the idea that they could be stopped by force, you are advocating for continued, global violence. It’s less personal than a CEO being shot in the street, but it is violence nonetheless.

          Advocating for violence, regardless of reason, is sick. And a danger to Lemmy instances.

            Clearly false.

            A man is threatening to shoot everyone inside a school. Are you not going to advocate force be used to stop him?

            A far right group has risen to power in a nation. They are moving people into extermination camps. Are you not okay with fighting back?

            Ten people are stranded on an island. One man has all the food and water, enough so everyone can survive until help arrives. He won’t share. Should the other 9 die of starvation, or take the supplies by force to share them more equally?

              They are moving people into extermination camps.

              No they’re not.

              Your “revolution” won’t happen. Things are going to stay just the way they are. There will be no one rising up to eat the rich. America isn’t going to descend into chaos. Luigi will get sentenced to spend the rest of his life in prison and he’ll be a forgotten footnote.

              Lemmy is ridiculous about revolution. No one is going rise up and to do what you want them to, bruh.

                It was a hypothetical scenario to demonstrate cases where violence is appropriate.

                You wrote:

                Advocating for violence, regardless of reason, is sick.

                In other words, there is no reason whatsoever, in your mind, where violence is appropriate. I gave an argument where violence would be appropriate. Do you disagree? Stay on topic.

                  I’ve given you my answer. This isn’t a discussion I’ll have. Get over it. Advocating for violence, regardless of reason, is sick.

                    Then you’re a fool, but I hope if it came down to it you wouldn’t go peacefully to a death camp. Maybe it’s too much to hope that you’d step up for your neighbors.
