    I just want them to not exist.

    So you want them to die, you just don’t want them to be killed? Lol

      I certainly see your point. That said, devil’s advocate, the comment doesn’t refer merely to political opponents, but rather:

      the most evil people I can think of

      Can you honestly say that you wouldn’t painlessly snap, let’s say, a proven serial child rapist out of existence? I think I’d do it, if for some reason the justice system was unable to stop them.

        Yeah, there’s a gulf of difference between wanting a problem to disappear vs relishing the incredibly detailed idea of pain and suffering of another human being. One’s like putting down a rabid dog, the other is just pain for pains sake.
