The “violent rhetoric” on the left has been saying fascism is bad and needs to be defeated.
And look at how some people are suggesting we should do that.
Check the modlog for the news and politics communities over the last few days. It’s there. People have been frothing at the mouth with all kinds of suggestions I will not repeat.
I say again: we all need to chill a bit. I hate that this sounds like I’m defending the right (I’m not). Emotions, tensions, and rhetoric are very inflamed right now, and celebrating, praising, cheering on, or defending political violence of any kind is not what we need to be doing.
So, the right is correct for once, albeit for very wrong / bad faith reasons.

WWII could have been prevented if the german left was less chill in the '30s.
Fuck that. Politicians should fear the people. Bring back the guillotine.

Where can one find the modlog? I just see the one tied to my account.
Bottom right on desktop, not sure on other platforms.
Go away.
This makes me glad I didn’t do anything special for Independence Day. Don’t want to be celebrating political violence.
