At what point is counter violence acceptable? Because we did get to a World War when it was allowed to continue, under the watchful eye of the international community who let it happen. I don't know when is best to employ violence but Antifa at least directs it at better targets.
Eh, tricky to say in so few chars when these things are so situational. My point is simply that we shouldn’t use physical violence against people without a corresponding threat or it just works against us in the long run.
Which I think most people here would agree with? Sorry, I should have been clearer in my original tweet.
But none of this should be needed anyway if we can get our government to step up :/ that would be my approach
The problem with waiting for a corresponding threat is that it usually takes the form of abuse, an attack or the death of a marginalised or less privileged member of society. The ones that Nazis and are already proudly&actively calling for violence against.
I use to think similarly until a friend pointed out that it’s a very privileged position to preach nonviolence when you aren’t the ones facing the immediate risk of it. If we don’t take fascist and hate groups at their word we are acting complicit in the eventual attacks.
