    And as long as Dems keep pushing the “violence is bad and what he wants, just vote and primary people” narrative it will be.

      Well, the Dems are sort of right, violence is bad, and it is exactly what the fascists want, but it’s also the only way that oligarchs have ever been removed from power. They never go willingly.

        Violence is a tool, one they want only for themselves to use against the people to maintain their power.

          Sadly for them, you can’t stop desperate people from getting violent no matter how many laws you make or civil liberties you gut.

          Its a tale as old as the human race: take too much from everyone, and they’ll eventually burn it down so everyone gets nothing and we try again.
