    I get the feeling a large majority of the world’s population are reactionary fascists by one standard or another to you.

    Also, I’m not even necessarily against the idea of censoring Republicans, but KILLING them?

      The majority of the world aren’t people actively involved in organizing and maintaining fascist organizations, right? If that’s the case I don’t give a shit about them. Keep those types powerless and isolated, remove the material conditions that give rise to fascist tendencies in the first place.

      Why not kill Republicans by the way? Bush Jr. killed a million Iraqis. Trump mediated a genocide against Yemen. Mitch McConnell is already a walking zombie. What is gained from keeping them alive? I’m not talking about killing Republican voters or someone who has a bumper sticker. That’s too much work to bother with. I’m talking about Republicans directly managing American empire for the benefit of capital. The average right wing voter is just some loser who deserves re-education.

        I think Trump should be imprisoned, not KILLED. Why are you so lustful for blood and guts? Good lord

          Somehow I doubt that the millions of us in the lower classes who suffered from his régime would be that restrained.

          In any case, it isn’t a question of one individual’s prescription. It is more a question of historic inevitability and necessity. I can’t say anything for sure, but should the lower classes directly confront Donald Trump and Mike Pence one day, I have a feeling that we’ll be just as forgiving as lower‐class Italians were of Benito Mussolini. Only a guess, though.

          I don’t think it’s especially productive to kill people when imprisoning them is easy, as it would be with the resources in America, but I don’t see why you are clutching your pearls this hard at a butcher of countless thousands being killed.
