      Order people to fire off more explosives than the human mind can comprehend in a war, then launch more explosives than that entire war in every battle of the next war, and you get called a “great man”

      You toss a single grenade at that first guy and suddenly you’re the “bomb thrower”.

      Watch “the Chekist”, and tell me how much of a net good it is.

      I love your naivety where you think they’ll kill all the people you don’t like, but they’d never touch you or your loved ones, because you’re the exception

        Watch The Murder of Fred Hampton, and tell me how it’s not currently being done by those in power.

        I love your naivety where you think that just because they don’t kill you or your loved ones, because you’re (likely) part of the accepted group, it’s ok to ignore the fact that they kill all the people you don’t care to think about.

        (I have no idea who you are. I just think the counter point to your point is equally valid and deserves consideration)

        It was a joke man jesus

        I mean I do genuinely believe there are many politicians who deserve to be shot though. Just not genuinely suggesting we line them up against a wall or anything
