Murdering your political opponents is a fascist tactic.
Lol that minimizes what fascism actually is. Assassinations have happened throughout history, including before Capitalism and before the crisis within Capitalism that created fascism.
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 didn't say that is all fascism is, just that it is a tactic within fascism. It can be a part of it. But anyway I don't want to argue what is and isn't fascism, my point is just that political violence and murdering your political opponents does not work with democracy and shouldn't ever be hoped for or wanted, even if it is your political opponent being targeted. I want Trump gone as much as the next guy on the fediverse but I don't want him killed.
Lol
