Would you reject violence coming from the general left if fascism continues to advance in America?
Yes. I oppose violence in every form.
Do you also oppose the police as a concept?
I oppose police violence, not the concept of upholding the lawful order.
Police, as a concept, involves violence. You cannot have police without violence.
Cool, you like the concept of upholding lawful order. How do you expect to implement that concept without violence?
Person A murders person B. It is illegal to murder. So you call the not-police to uphold that law. What is the not-police going to do? Ask A to voluntarily get into the cell and stay in there and learn their lesson?
You should pick up a history book sometime before the end of your life so you can learn something.
Go ahead and let me know what you would do if fascism kept advancing in America and, like every other time in human history, peaceful protest wasn't enough to make the fascists see the error of their ways and stop enacting their oppressive agenda.
P.S. The answer is you would die without a fight. Not on the wrong or right side of history. Just completely irrelevant. No use to the people on the right side of history and just another dead body to burn for the people on the wrong side.
