I'm guessing most of my followers support randomly punching Nazis. I don't. Let me try to explain why:

Premise one is that physically attacking your political opponents is inherently illiberal and uncivilized and an absolute last resort.

I realize Nazism is itself the very extreme of illiberality and incivility. But don't confuse attacking an idea with attacking a person.

You might argue that we need to "make racists afraid again" and that punching Richard Spenser "worked" because now he's afraid to go out.

So he's afraid. But he's still a Nazi. Racists don't stop being racist because they're afraid. They go underground & encrypt their rhetoric.

You might argue that Nazis are irrational and can't be persuaded. So our only option is to beat and intimidate them into silence.
