      Sorry but this is too close to Rule 2 for comfort. Consider this as a warning.

          Counterpoint: I don’t want this community to get banned from lemmy.world. If you want to openly advocate for violence make a Xitter account.

              Sure it is, don’t be silly. The point of claiming self defense is that it justifies the violence. It doesn’t make it not violence.

          “protected”? I dunno if the demented rapist is actually protected by rule 2.

          I think we’re protected by rule 2 such that there isn’t log records and the whatever and so on and such.

          It’s a very complicated case, a lotta ins, lotta outs, a lotta what-have-yous.

            So the people openly breaking the law to the point of hurting millions of people are still protected by the very thing they abhor?

            No wonder fascism keeps popping up. Almost like treating people who view other humans as scum, like they’re actually people, results in them doing whatever they want without consequence.

              I don’t entirely know why Musk should follow German (for this instance) or Austrian (for this community) law while not in Germany/Austria, I for one will not tolerate open calls for violence here.

      I’m convinced the only way to end MAGA is for them to witness Trump’s failure. Martyring him will likely enrage his followers against the left, leaving a power vacuum that will be immediately filled by the next bigoted sociopathic Republican in line.

        The problem is they won’t see anything he does as failing. He could literally shit his pants, reach down, and eat it. They’d fucking cheer for him and say real men eat shit.

          In less than a month he’s lost support from a portion of small business owners, small farm owners, Hispanics, natural disaster victims, etc. It’s going to take personal loss for less empathetic people to turn on him. If his goal is to exclusively cater to the wealthy, he’ll isolate his base soon enough.

            Sure, if you talk to them. However, if you put a ballot in front of them, they may hesitate for a second, maybe even ask who else is running, but they’ll vote for him again anyway.
