Violence and the threat of violence is an inexorable part of any system of law since forever. All the people bleating "this is unacceptable!" know this, they just don't want things to get out of their control.

[-] PugJesus@lemmy.world 15 points 2 years ago

The thing is that all major participants in the system have to endorse the "No violence" rule, because the entire point of the system is a monopoly on violence by the state - ie not loons with an AR-15.

The OTHER thing is that participants who don't care if they break the system so long as they rule the ashes don't have to do any such thing. They can endorse violence when they want to, and condemn it when they want to.

By political violence they mean violence against politicians not violence done through politics (i.e. wars, genocide...)

[-] spujb@lemmy.cafe 3 points 2 years ago

i am absolutely certain that the ongoing genocide has involved violence against politicians as well lol

To quote Clauzewhich (sp) "war is politics by other means".

War is politics.

"war is one means of political intercourse, characterized by military force, to accomplish political ends."

CoD players who don’t like politics in their games when they read this: )

yeah, don't even think about injecting politics into my apolitical game where i play a colonizer and mow down thousands of brown people to get to the one bearded dude with a turban who's against our colonizing ways.

For those who don't know, he is the Israeli minister of Foreign Affairs. He's pretty much managing the Israel-U.S. relationship.

Imagine speaking up when it costs nothing to shut up

What a pos. The hypocrisy of his statement just shows he sees Palestinians as subhuman and not counting in his washed morality

[-] Aceticon@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

The idea that people who purposefully murder children (not just as collateral damage but actually with snipers and by targetting playgrounds with bombs) who they call "human animals" would stop or even slow down in the least at hypocrisy is funny.

Of all the possible moral flaws a human being can have, the list of the ones Zionists do not have is shorter than that of the ones they do have.

(Mind you, hypocrisy is so incredibly widespread in Modern Politics, even is supposedly Democratic nations, that it's probably better for the intelligent listener to default to presuming hypocrisy until proven otherwise, than the other way around: That said Fascists in general are the worst in this and these types are ethno-Fascists - the same kind as the Nazis - so by far the worst of worst).

Is a holocaust considered politics?

[-] mo_lave@reddthat.com 1 points 2 years ago

If you think everything is political...

[-] Kalkaline@leminal.space 2 points 2 years ago

Stop killing civilians, pretty easy. Trump is a POTUS candidate, unfortunately a very dangerous job with about 1 in 10 being assassinated.
