No it's ok because they always say it has no place in the United States Palestine is a-ok!

Political violence is a trademark of the Coca-Cola company ffs nobody gives a shit about intellectual property anymore

Right on the money.

More money.

That last one almost makes it seem like non-political violence is OK?

I pray for the safety of the Luigi's in our world. They gave us hope that we lost in politicians.

Words can be weapons as well. Not all who slay beasts do so with metal.

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 9 points 1 year ago

Usually both are necessary, and relying only on words and not on actual organizing and coherent force ends up costing far more human lives than just committing to revolution. Non-violence just means your enemies get to use violence on you unopposed.

Where are these liberals? I'm only seeing celebrations or "I don't condone but in this case I don't care either" for the fascist getting shot.

Or were you hearing them condemn gun violence for the school shooting that also occurred today?

I've seen a lot of posts condemning political violence. Newsom, Bernie, Harris, Waltz, AOC.

[–] Oni_eyes@sh.itjust.works 15 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I haven't seen any of them praising the assassination of Palestinians though.

Then there must be some mismatch between what actual liberal leaders are saying, and their followers.

[–] Oni_eyes@sh.itjust.works 13 points 1 year ago

Pretty sure we saw that with Luigi too

[–] Tenderizer78@lemmy.ml 18 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Newsom, for one.

"Womp womp" - Some republican, mocking the suffering of others on fox news

I think the above quote sums up the world's reaction pretty nicely

[–] Aria@lemmygrad.ml 12 points 1 year ago

Beyond even that, they praise inviting people to negotiate and then murdering those negotiators.

I think we should issue dueling pistols to politicians if you have a disagreement, settle it at 12 paces.
