    All such violence is illegal, immoral, & ineffective at bringing about social & moral progress @Omars_Words We EXPECT Far-Right neo-Nazi thugs to be violent. What surprises is when the side of peace, reason & nonviolent resistance turns to violence. That's why we call them out. https://twitter.com/IbSapien/status/1155688635716591616 …

        Wait. What? Because violence from deranged right wingers is expected it's not necessary to "call it out?" These people aren't trying to "bring about social & moral progress," they're trying to exterminate people they hate!

        It's a moral imperative to use violence against these people and their sympathizers.

        So your standard is zero tolerance for the left but the standard for the right is just don’t murder too many people each year. Seems legit

        They cannot understand the value of your point because they lack a wider perspective. The use of repeated keywords and short slogans is the mark of conditioning. Accusing opponents of being "reactionary" is always a result of Marxist indoctrination.
