John Brown invaded the homes of slavery supporters, dragged them from their bed, and hacked them to death with swords in front of their kids. I suppose you'd say that was inappropriate.

John Brown would say that the institution of slavery was violence it'self and therefore any action taken against it, or it's supporters is justified as defense of life.

Violence against fascists is always in the defense of self or others.

There's no such thing as a peaceful Nazi. Sure, there are times where a physical attack wouldn't be appropriate, but someone waving a swastika is inciting violence against minorities and contributing to their extermination, so they should be treated just like Nazis doing physical violence are treated. As @yesman@lemmy.world said, beating up fascists is self-defense.

Violence against nazis is self defense. The ideology specifically calls for the elimination of ethnic groups and should thus be terminated with prejudice. Nazis are cancer for society. If they are allowed to exist the cancer will kill the society. See US right now.

We kill bad bacteria to live, we kill bad cells to live, cut out parts of our body so that the rest lives. It is appropriate. But people do not want to talk about it

True victory over nazism is to allow it, and watch it lose

I was mostly a lurker on reddit anyway, so they haven't lost much.

Hell yeah bro
