    You can advocate for violence against the poor and minorities all day on here.

    Where? Seriously, where is this happening? I’m all over lemmy and any time I see a direct call for someone, anyone, else to die that comment is removed quickly and often the commenter is banned.

    So give me specific instances, prove your claim.

        Of course I have but that’s not what you were referencing in the comment I replied too, nor was it what my reply was about.

            They are not the same as a comment that I just read that says, and I quote, “Yes we’ve had first CEO assassination but how about a Second?”

            If you think they are the same then you are part of the problem.

              No, you…

              (they aren’t the same, a state’s monopoly on violence, which they inflict on their own, and other, citizens with impunity, and which you are not only consenting to, but defending, is infinitely worse)

              Calling for increased police and war budgets is calling for the deaths of thousands. You’re right- they’re not the same. The pro-war and pro-cop are far more violent.

              Yes, they are the same. Advocating for more cops means you want innocent people to be murdered. But they’re poor so they don’t count I guess. Celebrating the West feeding the doomed Ukraine led war means you’re happy when the poor die – rich Ukrainian aren’t dying, the ceos of Ukrainian industry aren’t dying, they won’t be affected.

              The scale is different, but that’s because there are fewer people with money and power.
