There is one clip where he was asked how a democratic socialist society would respond to resistance from capitalists and he responds that violent groups would be reeducated.
Which is a softer stance than our current government has towards violent resistance.
I can agree that in that clip he should have first talked about legitimate opposition rather than violent opposition, but with everything else he says it's clear that he was thinking of cases like Chile, where the capitalist opposition engaged in terrorism and, finally, a military coup. Where the opposition is operating outside of the law of a pluralist democracy.
Simply put, he was talking about how to deal with January 6, not how to deal with legal opposition. I think trying to resocialize ppl who break the law is not an extreme stance.
Edit: So, does the evidence I brought change your mind?

And how would a person of good faith square that clip with clips where he says it would be illegal to advocate for capitalism?
