Let's say you're in school, and you're assigned a lab partner and told the requirements of your project and that you need to compromise both individual's ideas to make it happen.

Every time you try to make a suggestion, they immediately say no and suggest something that isn't even graded for the project, and refuses to budge until you compromise. When you don't compromise, they threaten to tell the teacher that you're not compromising. As you try to hold your ground trying to get a good grade for both of you, they just keep doing whatever they want and making more threats to you: they'll take your lunch money, they'll beat you up after school, they'll pop your bike tires, etc.

When you tell the teacher, they tell you to stop overreacting and you need to learn to work with others. After school, your science partner punches you and says you better agree to XYZ tomorrow. You tell the teacher they hit you, and you're told you need to stop exaggerating and learn to compromise and work together. Every day that week, your science partner makes good on each threat after school, and every day you tell your teacher, they tell you to stop exaggerating and learn to play nice.

On the last day, you punch the kid back, really hit him, break his nose kind of punch. And you're punished: the teacher says you shouldn't have resorted to violence, your partner says they were the true victim in the project arrangement, you get a failing grade because everything you compromised on didn't meet the requirements, but your science partner still got an A and wasn't punished for anything he did all week because "the rules don't apply to them the same way, they're troubled/have a lot going on at home/whatever excuse."

That's the current state of US politics: Republicans are justified in any and everything they do because they're "special," but Democrats have to follow all of the rules, all of the time, even when the other side of the aisle refuses to even listen to them or the centuries/decades of legal precedent. And they, the Republicans, still win because that's just how the fucking system works.

Any bloodless revolution is done through an implicit threat of violence. It is just the losing side being smart about how they lose.

I tillegg om du er dansk, vil eg påpeike at Danmark mista eineveldet sitt då dei tapte Napoleonskrigane i 1814, som også var grunnlaget for Noreg sin uavhengigheit og demokratiske grunnlov.

The guy doing the shooting was a registered republican.

Like I give the first, second, or third fuck? Where they're from doesn't change my people's history, or that cracker's place within it. I genuinely see the vast majority of you euros the same, because where they're from doesn't change the fact that they still talk the exact same way the actual settlers that still devil my people do.

That, "oh, this isn't like us", "oh, you need to condemn this violence even though violence is our profit", "oh, this isn't how politics works" and all that other happy cracker horseshit; this tells me white supremacy and habitus has already infected the Nordics-- which were never friends to the Black nation, regardless of who ended their trade in flesh when.

Democracy requires nonviolence

HAHAHAHA oh damn my dude go and read any history book.

Oh stop fuckin being precious. That's exactly how settler democracy from Amerika to Germany and back works; you CLEARLY don't know your own history. When you don't like a world leader who told you 'no' at the trade table, the West has him put down. When a world leader proposes divestiture from the petrodollar, the West assaults him in ways you ALL claim to detest with bayonets, then make fucking jokes about it in the days after. When the West need land cleared out for genocidal settlers to put down their stakes, you ALL provide all the weapons in the world.

Amerika's very 'democracy' itself was built on the genocide of Native Amerikans, and slavery of stolen Africans. The hegemon whose comforts, privileges, and treats YOU ENJOY was ALWAYS greased in the blood of the people you ALL consider 'lesser'. I repeat: you don't know your own fucking history.

It literally isnt: fascism is capitalism in crisis and assassinations have gone on for most of human history, before the development of capitalism in the first place

It is sad to see this state of the divide in the US. Even if you are against Trump, you're not against him enough unless you want him dead. If you don't want him dead, you must be a troll. What a sad state this debate has reached.
