They want preemptive violence against a perceived existential enemy as self-defense. You’re right, this historically has produced nothing but tragedy. They want to try it again and believe electoral means to address this threat will be taken away from them. They view speech as a form of potential enemy ideological recr

I’ve been called far right and a Nazi-sympathizer for condemning this here. The progressive left has embraced political violence and actual liberals who object are lumped in with the right. So in effect, the progressives have ceded anti-violence to the right, as all moderates are relegated to right wing for rejecting

It's wrong regardless of political affiliation.

So you endorse violence against words. Noted.

That was quick! I love how condemning violence makes me far right or a Russian. 

No. You should not be battered for speaking. Jesus.

Cue the progressives decrying this while simultaneously trying to get others fired/deplatformed/banned in 3, 2, 1...

Spoken like an actual fascist. Your problem is that you don’t know what racism is and who the fascists are. Trump is not a fascist, FFS. They are out there, but you don’t even know who they are, and you are conflating the entire right with them. Just as I was wrong to conflate the progressive left with entire left.

I am a fucking liberal livid that the left have betrayed liberal principle. I condemn all political violence. Do you?

I'm a liberal. The left is not doing well. The progressive left is firmly in control of academia, media, and entertainment, but as you can see, the backlash against their illiberal principles is underway. Politically...things are dire. Progressives are in charge and pushing docialism, bigotry, and violence. America

What is the liberal principle? Violence is okay but words are harmful. Unreal.

Yeah words are words. 

Rapists have rights, too. I’m absolutely unironically in support of rapists.

Yeah, I'm sure violence in response to speech won't chill expression at all. Mr. Chairman Mao.

Fine with me. I guess you think being against violence, free speech, and judging people by race are right wing values. Which means you’ve conceded this these values to Trump supporters. Hold move.

Good to know, thanks. I’ve gotten a 135 replies accusing me of being a white supremacist for condemning violence, or advocating violrnce, or defying liberalism as not violent enough, ect. Interesting times.

So battery is an acceptable consequence of free speech. Cool. And now was this guy racist, exactly?

Punk is dead.

But I am directly attacking the progressive left for broadly advocating violence and being against free speech while judging people by race. These are prevalent trends and I object as a liberal.

The progressive left advocates violence. T or F?
