So much to unpack here. Your last 2 paragraphs are lucid, but the previous 3 are unhinged.

Am i wrong though?

Well, did you go out and defended democracy by force?

Unhinged how? Or do you just have insults and no substance?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago (1 children)

it's unhinged because of the implication of violence against a specific group of people identified by their political beliefs. And wouldn't you know it, it's that same group of people who are opposing all of the solutions I proposed in my previous comment.

You and I agree on this topic, I was just curious if the other commenter had anything intelligent to add or if they just instantly resort to insults because they can't intelligently articulate their viewpoint.

From you I didn't see an implication of initiating violence so much as protecting against those whose political beliefs support violence against their out groups. Seems pretty reasonable to me.
