      I think some people are just looking for an excuse to do things they’ve been craving for a long time.

      Let us not dehumanize the people we disagree with and call for violence. Because at that point we are no different than they are.

        Bullshit. Fascism sees violence not as a means to an end, but a goal unto itself. It will be violent regardless. In contrast, even the most bloodthirsty anti-fascist sees violence as a means to an end; something to be left behind as soon as its purpose is complete.

        If you want to stop it without violence, it has to be now. Once rooted in, a violent response is the only one that will work. Pretending otherwise will only enable them.
