Yea. I got my protection. It’s called being smarter than they are. They aren’t doing anything. Look at them with January 6th. They only killed one of their own and took a few statues. They have to fight the government. Which they will lose to.

You’re going to out think political violence?

And the Beer Hall Putsch was a failed coup that only ended up killing 15 Nazi… Guess it’s safe to assume that the Nazi went away after that and were never problematic again?
They have to fight the government. Which they will lose to.
Unless…the conservatives get control of the executive again. Then they would have the backing of both the executive, the judicial, and half of the legislative branch to protect them.
It wouldn’t be them fighting the government, in the actually dangerous scenario, it would be us.
So much for that education.
For the actual context of why leftist advocate for self protection you should really read The Death of Democracy by Benjamin Hett, and Setting Sites by Scott Crow.
Death of Democracy goes into detail about how the Weimar Republic (a government designed based off our own) fell to fascism, and how fascism was specifically designed to infiltrate and destroy democracies from within.
Setting Sites is a collection of stories spanning throughout modern history of socialist communities who successfully defended their communities from political violence. It’s a guide on how to set up networks of community based mutual aid and defense, and why it’s important to do so.
I am. I am not being shot at. Neither are most people that aren’t out there asking for violence. Amazing how diplomacy and being calm works amongst adults.
Lol, and how do you suppose I use my wit to avoid the violence of someone who just does like the color of my skin?

Do you not understand this is the same rhetoric conservatives use when they hear about rape, “well what was she wearing”?
I’ve literally been in physical altercations with someone I’ve never met or talked to, simply for being in an interracial marriage in the south.
We have friends who are trans or gay, and we are in a state specifically targeting their safety. The community also has a high rate of domestic violence, and our home acts as a community safe house for a number of friends. Unfortunately there are a large number of firearms in my state and you don’t need a license to conceal one. So there’s a good chance the people my friends would be hiding from may be armed.
So how would you handle these situations in an “adult way”?
