      Then ‘reality’ is settign the stage for bigger coups and more stochastic violence from fascist leaders. This mentality you seem to think is ‘reality’ is not an preventing violence, it’s just kicking it down the road to the jext judge, the next governor, the next person they target. It’s MORE dangerous to do what we’re doing now. You’re very nonchallant for someone to whom reality means violence gets you what you want.

        Welcome to the real world? Go read a couple of history books and you’ll soon realize that there’s nothing special about what’s going on at the moment.

          Welp then instead of doing anything proactive, should any of that violence you don’t care about makes it’s way to you, I hope reading your book gives you great comfort in knowing that it was nothing special. The difference between history and the present is we can still change the prsent. You sound like you couldn’t change a lightbulb with that perspective on things though. Good luck.

                How about you come up with an actual answer?

                You complain that it’s not ok and I agree, I just state the obvious, that’s how society works and you tell me I’m doing nothing to change it and I’m asking you, what do YOU suggest people like you and I should do to make it so Trump faces consequences for the way he’s acting in front of the judge?

                  First I hear of you saying violence is not okay. I thought you were on to something. If violence works and is no big deal, what’s the issue now? Should we simply allow one side to dictate or fight back. No use sitting on ethical pedestals if its going to cause less ethical outcomes. Nah im liking this violence thing now. Thanks for helping me find where the real power is. Like you said welcome to reality, and im not gonna let one side dictate that reality. Stay powerful friend.
