The 23-year-old French man was attacked while providing what his supporters said was security for a protest against an appearance by hard-left MEP Rima Hassan at an event in Lyon. 'Hatred that kills has no place in our country,' the French president said on Saturday.
Gee, I couldn’t imagine why people get angry at Nazis. Make Nazis afraid again! Democracy and peace must be saved.
So mudering someone is just getting angry? Fascism has won when this is the dominant logic. You’re thinking and speaking like an ICE agent.
He wasn’t murdered. He was beaten up.
The far right has been active in France for a long time, and non violence was never able to stop the movement.
Sometimes, you have to fight back, and I’d argue that violence is warranted against overt Nazis.
Mussolini would love you. Too bad he was busy hanging upside down.
Mussolini hated democrats and pacifists. So no, he would have not loved me. But you 2 would get along just fine.
They wouldn’t, because Birdwing would be defending democracy by killing fascists
Killing unarmed “fascists” on the streets of France today is a crime and will ensure record voting on far right parties. Your notion of human rights is sickening, and when values so important as those get so distorted left and and right, there’s not much hope for democracy to last.
But we’re not at war, France is a democracy still. Murder is still murder.
Don’t put it in quotes like it’s in doubt. He chose to be a neo Nazi. This is the outcome of that choice. Apparently he also died because he refused to get help.
But you are free to continue to defend fascists if it makes you feel good.
