    this is correct and good.

    we should feel empathy for our enemies, but that shouldnt stop us from knowing what needs to be done.

    andy ngo is a fascist who collaborates with atomwaffen to make kill lists, and deserves far more than a sock to the jaw.

    hes also a misguided useful-idiot who would undoubtedly be purged if such white supremacists held the power they hope for.

    people like andy ngo made their choice, and the choice they made was to put your life on the chopping block while they cozy up to people that want them dead. that is sad

    this is why the concept "make no excuses for the terror" is an important one. the necessary action may be terrifying and terrible, but the alternative is worse.

    the andy ngos and trumps of the world will never willingly stop the terror they inflict, because they have no empathy

      Yeah, i actually agree with the "when our turns we will make no excuses for the terror" a lot because of that.

      Poverty has killed millions. Capitalism will let change change kill billions. I feel sad about violence but by doing nothing instead of fighting back, we're letting millions more die. Every single day. COVID-19 alone has killed over 200,000 in one year in america because we refused to actually give people some time off work and quarantine.

      So yeah idk. That's why i'd happily enjoy trump dying but i don't want to see actual suffering. Because at the end of the day, the suffering we could inflict will be a drop in the ocean of the blood and bones they've been grinding us in since the dawn of this accursed system.
