    That may be the case but whatever theocratic white-supremacist trump-supporter he was, I think advocating for the murder of a person because he advocated for the murder of a person (or at least implied that) doesn’t make one any better than him, if that makes sense.

    People are talking about him having spread hatred (which he did) and are at the very same time spreading hatred about him. Quite ironic in a way…

        “I do not imply that we should always suppress the utterance of intolerant philosophies; as long as we can counter them by rational argument and keep them in check by public opinion”. - Karl Popper, clarifying that statement you cited

        One shouldn’t kill a communist that is simply voicing their opinion, one should however kill a second Stalin.
