    Still in awe that abstract calls for death are the big red line that can never be crossed because it makes a space unsafe. Calling us fascists and Nazis? That's just some healthy discussion. Doubting that people here are really trans? That's a slap on the wrist. But hyperbolic vitriol against landlords or "people of NATO"? Oh buddy, now you're going to get it.

      Unless it's calling for deaths of Russian or Chinese citizens. Then it's suddenly okay

        or just "everyone in a state that votes 51% republican"

        really liberals love celebrating the deaths of all sorts of innocent people. pretty sick!

      I think people unconsciously side with who they could see themselves being. "I could randomly become a landlord or I could 'accidentally' say a slur, but I could never become one of the poors or trans" type of vibe.

      Abstract calls for death are okay if you're advocating for the state to do it though!

      Libs:

      Landlords get the wall -> Oh no violent tankie

      Being a landlord should be illegal and carry a heavy jail sentence -> That's completely unrealistic and would ruin the economy

      Kill all (pick a minority) -> Oh no nazis are bad

      The state should round up (pick a minority) -> I disagree but I'll defend you're right to say it
