How can you say something like "empty, cowardly moralizing" and not realize you're being a villain.

how can you say nazis should have been allowed to beat the poo poo out of a bunch of preachers in charlottesville because the alternative is giving your tummy the rumblies, and not realize you are the villain

No, I'm saying it's hypocritical to say something is violence, therefore it must be stopped with violence.

They've barely done anything and what they have done wouldn't have been stopped more effectively with violence anyway.

I did not, in fact, argue that.

He's made it clear that, until people are being literally stripped of their citizenship and herded onto cattle cars, it's not really anything to get worked up about and use of force prior to that point is immoral and hypocritical. It is a breathtakingly myopic position available only to those who, deep down, fear resurgent Nazism less than they do antifascist street resistance.

that's funny because that's exactly the thesis of the post u quoted

Crane Fist posted:

if u are against all kinds of violence, i have bad news for u because the threat of violence is the cornerstone of all law & punishment in our society. Violence must be contextualized in order to examine its morality.

Example: Is violence against someone presently raping someone else permissible? Yes, of course!

Your claim of "all violence is immoral :smug:" is a childish oversimplification.

Assaulting some powerless idiot who spent too much time on 4chan is not stopping those things.

What about a group of people who are harrassing, but not physically attacking, an interracial couple? Would it be appropriate in your mind to assault them? Would you stand by and watch that happen?

You, a fool, an utter lackwit: It is morally acceptable to use force to defend the oppressed, particularly against literal attacks and street harassment by Nazis.
Jeb! Repetition, a sage, wise beyond mortal ken: Ah, but what if some of those Nazis were actually merely Nazis sympathizers? Who's the real monster now?
