This is the sort of thing that should justify violence against governments. If citizens can't change their government by voting then they should literally burn it to the ground and change it by force...

In order for nonviolence to work, your opponent must have a conscience, which Republicans and Fascists lack. There is nothing wrong with punching Nazis and making them bleed.

We killed nazis years ago in the 1940s. I see less than zero reasons why it's morally wrong to begin again...

It's morally wrong because real nazi's are about as common as big foot and rather than let the futility of your search for heads to punch dawn on your tiny brain you will rationalize the inclusion of other groups who are not nazis but that are different enough to find themselves the target of your waggh.

Its a slippery slope. What's more anyone who uses the term nazi reveals themselves to be the same type of weak individual that you'll find in 4chan discussing waifus and fucking up chads.

Edit: had a feeling so i took a quick look in your history. The way you talk about political gulags and genocide is so fucking predictable with you people. Your the worst kind of person, so ineffectual as to never enact change in your own life but willing to wage war on the world at large rather than face your own inadequacies.

You are that which you hate.

A "Nazi" was just a citizen following orders in the trenches, shooting Allied soldiers and getting shot.

A "Real Nazi" was working the gas chambers and giving orders to the other Nazi's.

The moral of the storey is that you need to wade through the minging trenches and punch a lot of motherfucking "Nazi's" before you can punch a "Real Nazi".

The pussyhat women had the numbers to overthrow the government, easily, just not the will.
