The FBI killed a Utah man who issued numerous death threats. Far-right figures are now claiming the Biden administration is coming to kill conservatives.

And there is the dilemma... Do you allow a group of people who have casually committed or promoted genocides for hundreds of years continue to grow... or do you become what you hate and stop them?

To be clear, the so called target being discussed has been gleefully:

  • Lynching people of colour
  • Burning homes, churches, and killing entire towns of people of colour
  • Erasing the history and culture of indigenous peoples
  • Currently trying to erase the history of slavery
  • Promoting the extermination of the LGBTQ+
  • Taking away human rights
  • Actively pushing to limit voting to minorities
  • Removing or white washing science and history
  • Banning books with thoughts and ideals of other culture or identities
  • Acts of domestic terrorism

And more.

At what point do you stop protecting them as a justifiable group of people and treat them for what they are, white supremacist terrorists.

Defeating fascism is the exact opposite of "becoming what you hate"

Ah, but someone here thinks that is a form of genocide. It's not, it's curing cancer... but they posed the idea anyway.
