That “lol” is quite unnecessary. There is no need to ridicule me. I would expect better from a mod of a community like this.

I dont need to, but I felt like it. I chose restraint and went with "lol" instead of really getting into how ridiculous and chauvinist of an opinion it is.

I didn’t say that is all fascism is, just that it is a tactic within fascism

You said this: "Murdering your political opponents is a fascist tactic."

my point is just that political violence and murdering your political opponents does not work with democracy

I mean the Soviets murdered the hell out of nazis, so there is a counterexample for you. The cubans also murdered the hell out of high level regime collaborators when batista was overthrown. Another counterexample. I'm not advocating for murder within our political system but like, you're not correct.
