    Listen, I will tell you a big difference between me, racists, and fascists. I only use violence if they don’t keep their ideas to themselves.

    Hitler only used violence on public enemies that didn’t keep their ideas to themselves. You don’t seem to comprehend that whatever authority you grant yourself, you also give to the fascists. When you allow yourself to silence your enemies, you allow them to silence their enemies, including you.

    History shows that really bad stuff (genocide) happens when fascists take power.

    Which is why I am begging and pleading with you not to grant anyone that power, not even yourself. Because as soon as you claim it for yourself, you give it to them as well.

    Do not wield a power you do not wielded against yourself.

      Hey, I will stop being violent when there is no need to.

      Speaking of which, did you want to answer my question about your hypothetical?

      What would a tolerant non-violent society do with a bunch of fascists attempting to gain power to do violent activity?

      If you have non-violent solution to this, I would happily change my stance.
