Anyone who utters a phrase like “they’re hurting the wrong people” is not a moderate of any kind.
Wanting a demographic to be hurt is inherently extremist.

Ehhh… depends. I find it extreme to be OK with certain demographics existing. Like Nazis. Nazis shouldn’t exist, because they should be extinct.
Wanting absolutely despicable people to hurt is and should be a natural emotional response to learning of their existence.

To be somewhat pedantic, “Nazi” is not a demographic identifier. Demographics almost always refers to more immutable features like age, sex, gender, orientation, race, nationality, citizenship, etc. Political ideology is a way to divide and count people, but it’s not something that is reliably counted as a demographic indicator.

I dunno’, being a stupid bigoted judgemental clown willing to kill over things that they don’t understand seems to be pretty immutable in my experience!

I meant demographics like POC or LGBTQ, aspects people cannot change about themselves. Being a fascist is a choice.
