Will Bunch expresses what I’ve been thinking since Trump was elected. American democracy is under attack from within. The fascists who yearn for an authoritarian government in the media are promoting it, and the media who supposedly don’t support it fail to recognize it. They are busy trying to follow the political playbook of the 20th century.

    Yeah, and like that time that one of those armchair internet heroes actually faced a neo nazi without pissing their pants.

    Oh wait, that never happened.

    You know what has happened, loads of times, though? Judges and juries sending people to jail for assault and battery after they punched somebody for no reason.

    That none of you here understand that simple principle tells me that you still have a lot to learn about the real world.

      I live in Portland. I’ve been confronted face to face by plenty of you assholes over the past few years.

      Somehow I’m still walking free. I must be the exception that proves the rule

        you assholes

        Thank you for making the point that “punch a Nazi” is really really bad because assholes like YOU immediately conflate everyone who disagrees with you with Nazis too.

        But so you’re saying that you’ve assaulted many people already for no reason. You weren’t sttacked, you weren’t defending yourself, you simply saw someone with an opinion or attitude that you didn’t like, and you assaulted them.

        Yeah, you’re a horrible violent criminal and you should be in jail. Probably get mental help too. In any case, you’re much much worse than your average neonazi

          I was confronted by checks notes um. Nazis. Proud Boys, Patriot Front… literal same shit. They came into my city and menaced people. I didn’t seek them out.

          I’m still here and thriving. Somehow your heroes are all getting jailed.

          Shitty Nazi apologists thinking I’m an awful person isn’t the drunk you think it is

            Did I ever say neo Nazi’s are heroes? Poiint me where.

            I’m saying you cannot assault people. Literally all I did, and judges, juries and police are all in agreement on that.

            So you are more in.favor of an anarchistic society where vigilantism is a thing of the day. I’m sure there’s no way that could backfire or cause innocent people to be swept up in it. You’re pretty much what you say you are against, really.
