Not really “powertripping”. Just pathetic. Consider this a notice to avoid feddit.org… I’ve unsubbed and blocked the instance.

We can’t dehumanize fascists for their choice to dehumanize everyone for things outside their control though, because that would be mean, and hurt their sociopath feefees!

Europe stool idly by throughout the 1930’s “tolerating” fascism, and the Nazi’s killed over 100 million people. Don’t make the same mistake as the radical centrists of history. Fascists will not afford you the same tolerance or courtesy.

    I think the key difference is that no one was bringing Brian Thompson to justice.

    Who is bringing Putin, Trump or Netanyahu to justice?

      One is a corporate executive, the other three are sovereigns.

          Legally one can be held accountable, the other three have to be deposed or theoretically could be impeached but legal process doesn’t work for that

            Thus my question - who is bringing them to justice. Your point is?

              Nobody, because they are leaders of nation states so unless the nation state fails or there is a regime change, they are above the law. That’s the entire premises of being a ruler, no matter what “democracy” lovers would like to believe. That’s port of social contract people implicitly accepted.

              Nobody accepted oligarchs living above he law, albeit historically they sure have enjoying their best lives…

              But there were always counter forces within a few generation to clip their excesses.

                  Brain Thompson was brought to justice?

                  I guess in a way but not really within the regime’s framework?

                    Now read my reply to the comment I was responding to. Slowly 🙄
