We’ve witnessed capitalism and its inhumanity. That’s extreme. Up until recently we’ve been the spoiled beneficiaries, while our gluttonous appetite for consumerism has cause immeasurable suffering to developing nations via economic imperialism.
When I realized this, workers rising up worldwide to dominate the capital class is the only moral endpoint. And that might require violence, as the rich aren’t going to willingly comply without the threat of elimination. Fighting to have justice for workers isn’t extreme at all. It’s either us or them. They’d just as soon have us dead. We’re all expendable parts of a machine to them.
Radical unionists in the early 20th century fought the military and died in order for us to have 8-hour workdays and better working conditions.
Extremism is part of our political discourse and always has been, even since the founding of the country.
Still, it’s in horribly bad taste and I wish we were better than this.
