    you live in an interesting world, either you wait until some far right threat as built it’s self up and radicalized, or do exactly that, but this time try to shoot first.

    the whole idea of maybe there was a bunch of stuff leading up to the Nazis threatening to shoot you that you could intercede in, stopping the whole need for shooting in the first place apparently never crossed your mind.

      I believed that way too for a few months after November 2016…but you dont understand who you are dealing with. Those issues aren’t causes; they’re excuses. There is nothing you can do to appease these people; they hate because they hate. Plenty have been raised to know that their behavior and attitudes are wrong but they embrace it anyway. How many stories and comments have you read and geard about how someone’s friend or family member always seemed like normal and intelligent people until 2015 and then became increasingly fascistic and now they don’t talk any more? Thise people were ALWAYS who they were; they just never said it. They had jobs and homes and stock portfolios and nothing was affecting them negatively yet they embraced fascism and “othering” anyway.

      There was nothing that could be changed that would’ve stopped this from happening short of a massive and overwhelming Hillary landslide. The simple fact is that half or more of the US are fascists and always have been, and now they’ve emboldened all the others around the world.
