      I disagree. I can only see it as an application of chapter 2. Only that they skipped chapter 1. And usually, the grunts aren’t really recruited for their ability to read books.

        Provides perfect example of love not defeating fascism.

        Misreads it as the exact opposite…

          Wouldn’t the exact opposite be love defeating fascism? I don’t believe i said that anywhere. But I can say it now.

          Love can defeat fascism. Mutual love as fellow humans. Everyone has to be willing to put it to practice though.

          The example i gave has a simpler purpose. Extreme violence only has one result: death.

          Some people expect it to be the death of fascism, but it’s not. It’s just death. And death isn’t picky.

          Instead, some people here seem to love hating. They love to hate cops, lump them together and dehumanize them into a blob of abhorrent mass.

          I know it’s hard to think about things and harder still to solve the issues that plague us, but that doesn’t make advocating violence right, no matter who it is against.

          It’s fine to be wrathful. But it’s not right. Violence changes you. And as long as you have a conscience, the remorse will always be there. To escape the burden, many choose to lock away that conscience and fall deeper into violence. Until you become that which you claimed to kill.

          The only real way of defeating fascism is solving the issues that caused it to surface, together.

            I didn’t bother reading because three paragraphs in it was clear you failed to recognize the fascists were the one committing extreme violence leading to death…

                  To say that means you’ve been a victim of effective trolling and this saddens me. It also helps prove a point, you’re jaded.

                  The experience was significant enough to mark your personality and change your train of thought when what you consider as trolling is involved.

                  Return to youth, old soul, and believe that people are better than you thought, even though they are often not.
