    “Put him to death!” is an interesting take from the “violence is never the answer” team.

      I genuinely don’t know if they’re doing this intentionally, or if they are just completely blind to it at this point, but violence is, and always has been, normalized and used in the dominating political/legal/governing/economic systems. It’s just not treated as such.

      Because what is denying someone’s healthcare insurance claim that they are supposed to get if not violence? Or sending police after someone? Or sentencing someone to death?

      Violence has always been part of the answer. It’s just that that answer is not officially allowed for the common rabble.
