THANKYOU. His views were vile, his behaviour was repugnant, and no doubt the world is better without him. That doesn’t mean it’s ok to kill someone because their views are awful!! I’m horrified seeing how many people think it’s ok to do this
Soo… who is disenfranchising these Nazis? Who is systematically taking away their resources? Because it looks to me like they keep getting stronger, and I don’t know what else will stop them other than fear of death.
Don’t forget, fascists ultimately want to horrifically murder anyone who doesn’t blindly obey them. So if it must be either civilized people or them… sorry Charlie, you gotta go.
Or did you want to wait and sacrifice a few dozen more innocent people so we could have yet more incontrovertible truth that fascist ideologies always lead to fascist outcomes?
Would I overwhelmingly prefer he was deplatformed for his hate, ridiculed out of every spotlight, or censured through judicial means? Absolutely. ‘Vigilante justice’ on its own is no justice at all. But if this is a trolley problem, I know for a fact where I’m putting the switch. Do you?
Yeah extrajudicial execution has no place in this world! (except for when, for example, trump wants to do it to venezuelans, or something like that. then its a good thing instead of a bad thing)
It’s okay to kill Nazis. Because it’s not just views. They are spreading violent rhetoric. He spread the white replacement and white genocide bullshit. He spread COVID misinformation. He said blacks were better off before the signing if the Civil Rights act.
He was a dangerous fascist mouthpiece. And now he’s not.

In case you’re not familiar: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradox_of_tolerance
Even he said it was OK and “worth it” if he got killed. He also said that people shouldn’t have empathy.
He literally thought empathy was a new and made up concept.
It’s worse, he didn’t think it was new. He knew it was a thing, and he was spreading the Evangelical (Christofascist) “The Sin of Empathy” rhetoric.
One example: https://www.desiringgod.org/articles/the-enticing-sin-of-empathy
I hadn’t heard of that, thanks.
Regardless of what he may have actually thought this is what he publicly stated:
“I can’t stand the word empathy, actually. I think empathy is a made-up, new age term that — it does a lot of damage.”

Nazi lives don’t matter.
He would have been happy to kill trans people.
