My actual goal right now is to call people out for celebrating someone's death, just because they don't like that person's opinions. It's heinous, barbaric, immoral, and leads to death of democracy.
Who is dehumanizing who? Calling people a Nazi is dehumanizing. Not saying actual Nazis don't deserve it, but the term gets thrown around a lot, and when the message is also that Nazis should be killed, it's stochastic terrorism because somebody might act because of misunderstanding or because they are crazy. Also anyone who is intolerant thinks they aren't, or they justify their intolerance because they perceive their enemies to be intolerant or immoral or evil.
Who are some nazis that should die? Trump? Anyone who voted for him? Anyone who said something homophobic or transphobic? How do YOU identify a nazi?
"Stochastic" terrorism is not the same as actual terrorism, if only because you don't actually know that it's stochastic terrorism. Half of the comments on lemmy since ck died could be considered stochastic terrorism. People been saying that it's ok to kill nazis for years, but everyone has a different idea of what a nazi looks like. Just a matter of time until some nut decides someone is a Nazi and kills them. Stochastic terrorism.
On lemmy, it's a conservative, in the right wingosphere it's a transgender. There is enough fake news out already to define whatever narrative you prefer.
Yeah, kinda. I guess maybe you can clarify. I'm saying that killing Charlie Kirk was an act of terrorism. I guess my comment only makes sense if the perpetrator was motivated by left wing ideals ie left wing terrorism, but that isn't clear yet.
He didn't properly disclose payments that were made, "hush money", which isn't itself a felony. They became felonies when they were linked to trying to influence the election.
Do you or do you not think it's ok to kill people who express opinions that you strongly disagree with? Because i don't. And if you do, then you have to allow for the possibility that they will also kill you for your opinion. It's a zero sum game, and any society like that will inevitably fail.
I agree, just because he is dead doesnt mean his words are above criticism.
