Fuck this noise. Kill Nazis and fascists.
Try them in court, convict, and then line them up with their families watching and shoot them in the face and make it required viewing for every kid on the planet.

Everyone deserves to be treated exactly the way they treat others.
So be racist to racists. Throw homophobes on the street. Exploit the rich. And kill all Nazis.
And if they can't handle that, then that is on them. It is the most neutral view you can have of the world.
The law, in its majestic equality, forbids the rich and poor alike to sleep under bridges, to beg in the streets, and to steal bread.
A system of fair rules does not always lead to fair outcomes, if the rules don't accommodate the asymmetry in capacity, motivation, resources, etc.
Blatant flaw in this: I don't want to murder anyone. I don't want to rape anyone. I don't want to be racist to anyone (though I acknowledge I am). And the moment I would do something like that to anyone, I would be a murderer or a rapist, and that's a shitty thing to be. So no thanks.
Tolerance paradox in action!
I remember being told it makes more sense when you realize it's a part of the social contract. Breaching it prevents you from taking part in it.
I mean, what if the Bad People are Nazis
Unpopular opinion:
Universal human rights apply to all humans, including Nazis.
Dehumanizing people and denying them their human rights is what Nazis do.
Nazis do have human rights. Including the right to be punished for their actions. Just like everyone else.
But if the governments don't punish them for their actions then don't be surprised if people take matters into their own hands. Which again, would happen to any group of people that were perceived as having too much power and being given too much leeway by the government, regardless of political beliefs.
I'll agree this should be an unpopular opinion. When they deny the rights of others, they forfeit their own.
Society is generally based on social contracts regarding human decency, respect and what apparently are more extreme ideas like compassion and empathy. It's an agreement to be a part of a community, not to exploit it for selfish gain. If they want to do that, at the very least they should be exiled and allowed only care about themselves by themselves.
We need to stop tolerating intolerance. If you're harmful to our species letalone our planet that we share with so many others, part present and future, ostracize or eradicate. This high road shit has gotten use nowhere in the entirety of our planets history but right here where monsters are allowed and encouraged to reign.
I'll also agree to step up to the chopping block if it means I take some of these assholes to hell hand in hand with me.
Granting someone human rights IS NOT tolerance.
And it's not high road shit.
When Nazis attack your state with an army, shoot them in defense.
When they attack your society, arrest them, give them a trial, lock them up and seize all assets they used.
Inestigate their support network and shut that down. Ban Nazi parties, clubs and groups.
Also, fund organisations that help people trying to get out of the Nazi community.
The problem we have isn't that those measures aren't enough.
It's that we don't even do those things, because our politicians are actually in league with them or afraid of them.
"Universal" human rights can be forfeited by the individual by attempting to restrict another's rights.
Done and done.
“Everyone I don’t agree with is a nazi therefore I am justified”
That's the flipside, but also, some people are Nazis
Yeah, Musk and Thiel both went to Nazi grooming schools In Apartheid South Africa.
Quite a severe lack of intellectual rigour is going on there. If nothing happens to bad people then they'll keep being bad people. The difference between the bad people and the good people is that the bad people do bad things because they like it. Good people do bad things to stop bad people from being bad people doing bad things.
If you let the bad people do bad things because you're a good person and as a good person you don't do bad things then the bad things may as well be done by the good people. It's all the same.
Light went after people in the prison system or suspected of being criminals, without ever doubting the justness of the system in any way. He is useful idiot, delusional agent of the system or megalomaniacal bootlicker. Choose your pick.
I'll allow you to call me bad if I'm also allowed to drop billionaires, the trillionaire, selected world leaders, and most of the Epstein class in to a woodchipper. It only seems fair.
I mean, I know we should not generalize, but the Epstein class are bad people who deserve to be murdered in awful suffering.
It's rare to see someone wno is evil without a doubt, but anyone from the Epstein class is one.
Who are "the Epstein class"? Just Epstein and Ghislaine? Just the rapists? Everyone in the files?
Seems like, whatever the punishment, you still need a process to determine guilt according to the evidence, rather than trial by public opinion.
Guilt tripping is a tactic often used by the abuser to control the abused.
I think we should defend ourselves against the bourgeouise 🙋
Lemmy in a nutshell
Yarrr, it be a good shitpost. Stupid, provocative ...
The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was to convince us he exists.
I see lots of comments arguing about whether bad things should happen to bad people and missing the point that it's criticizing the convenient, self-serving rationalization of doing bad things to [out-group enemy] going on.
