          That’s cause most stories you hear about them are based on hearsay, stereotypes, the effects of being pushed to the fringe of society, and racism.

            I was thinking of all the stories from people who’ve been victims of a crime perpetrated by them, or social workers etc who have dealt with them.

            But sure, I guess that’s all hearsay.

                It’s genuinely frightening to me that so much European rhetoric against Roma people sounds like 1950s US-era rhetoric against desegregation. Like the US is incredibly racist, and Europeans still somehow find ways to shock me over how they talk about an entire ethnic group.

                  Or treatment of indigenous people. “We need to take their children away so they can be educated in a safe environment (and not grow up like that)” is not uncommon.

                  Encouraging people to take away a group’s children for the purpose of destroying that group is a violation of the Genocide Convention btw.

        And antifa can be violent, though it’s not really an organization. Wikipedia describes it as a movement. And given the fact that fascists have ruined every country where they took power, violence against them is wholly justified.

            Antifa is a politically diverse group, only defined by being opposed to fascism, as sane people should be. If you were to ask 2 antifascists about how society should be run, you’d likely get 2 different answers. Same as for any group not defined by support for a political ideology.

        I pointed out that Kyle Rittenhouse had multiple people trying to kill him, and was actively running away from all three people he shot.

        That went well.

          How I unpopularly say it “Kyle Rittenhouse is a dumb sack of shit that did us a favor and took out 3 other even worse sacks of shit”. He didn’t go to prison because he accidentally did society a favor, but a lot of people are scared to admit that.

                  Edit: wait a minute. On your profile, you have “Once you’ve been to Gaza, you’ll never stop wanting to beat Benjamin Netanyahu to death with your bare hands.”

                  Ok, fuck right off. What Netanyahu is doing in Gaza is the same shit the Nazis did to the Jews and other “undesirables”. You don’t get to act like we can debate the Nazis away while calling for violence against people you personalty don’t like.

          Big brain time… maybe trading one form of violent politics for another form of violent politics isn’t the answer, but I get why both Nazis and Antifa wouldn’t want to listen to Ghandi and MLKs message.

    Except Reddit bans you if you so much as suggest someone stubs their toe. The rules against “advocating violence” have become so broadly interpreted in the last few years.
