yes. one that far too many people refuse to even consider because.... letting yourself be oppressed, brutalized, and murdered is just part of life, i guess?
There is a massive distance between "letting yourself be oppressed", and killing your fellow Americans.
Your fellow americans want to kill me
ICE agents are not Americans. They gave up the right to call themselves that the moment they put on that uniform.
Oh, being an American isnt a thing you can take from them. That's not how that works. Also that is a fascist idea.
Americans want me dead.
It is something I can take from them. Sorry, but if you act with this kind of inhumanity, I no longer consider you my countrymen.
Ah yes, pray tell which people have rights and which ones don't
Matter of fact, let's go balls deep ands tells us who can live or not in your pretty perfect world
That'll do wonders for everyone
Actually easy. Those who break the social contract are no longer protected by it. ICE/MAGA/Republicans have broken this social contract and now it's moral to target them. Glad I could help clear that up for you.
So it's cool to use fascism as long it's people you don't like?
No it's cool to bring those who harm innocents, or support those that harm innocents to justice and to enforce the social contract. MAGA/ICE is kidnapping people off the street for a 1k-1.5k bounty per person, and sending them to a concentration camp. They have violated the human rights of their once fellow humans. They sold their humanity for money, and fascism. They are committing unjustifiable violence and aggression on the population.
As such, they are no longer protected by the social contract. Anything they do, can now be done to them without it being considered immoral, or unethical.
Social contract =/= laws.
Look man I hate fascists, but depersoning them is a slippery fucking slope.
If you want to murder the bastards fine. But to do that you should know that it's because the are evil. Murder shouldn't be easy, don't cop out by saying they aren't american, because that's the justification they are using.
I'm not depersoning them, their actions already have.
