    When did I say anything about surrendering or not fighting?

    People sure like putting words in my mouth.

      I didn’t say you did. But it’s been a confusing conversation because it feels like I make a point in every message, and then you disagree with a minor detail of my point, instead of having a conversation about the big picture.

      To me it feels like we aren’t talking to each other really.

      I’m basically saying: We gotta use all means necessary to fight facism.

      And to me it seems you end up replying: But Trump is a dictator.

      Which confuses me because not very relevant to my point.

        I never said otherwise.

        And to me it seems you end up replying: But Trump is a dictator.

        I kept replying to your whole thing about how that was just pessimism.

        Which confuses me because not very relevant to my point.

        Your point seemed to be that the way to solve the fascism problem was targeted assassinations of CEOs.

      It’s because you equivocate and dance around without saying what you mean.

      Just say you think violence isn’t justified and won’t get the results you want. People will disagree but at least your stance will be clear.

            My point is that targeted assassinations will only make things work. I’m not sure why you didn’t get that.

              I dunno, we’ve had one, and I’m sleepin’ like a baby. Few more won’t bother me at all… Or all of them.

                It will when your insurance premiums go up because they’re all hiring massive security teams.

                  Yeah, I’m sure ripping people off more will put less of a target on them.

                  This is long overdue.

                    Do you think they’ll suddenly start putting people over profits now? When they legally can’t?

                    How do you think capitalism works exactly? Corporations do the compassionate thing when you threaten their leaders? Can you give an example?

          It doesn’t matter that much to me either way as I’ve learned to limit my egagement with you but if you want people to stop putting words in your mouth you have to speak clearly

            I spoke very clearly: targeted assassinations will not fix the capitalist healthcare system. It will make things worse.
