Wow. That was super helpful. Thanks for reminding me not to swear in the face of someone shilling for statist authoritarianism. Clearly saying "fuck" was a far bigger issue than someone that would see violence enacted against the innocent.
Seems more like the never helpful "It's bad how you said it". That shit I hear endlessly from women thinking they're being smart, but they're not. "Oh, I totally agree and get what you're saying, but the way it's being delivered is not nice". That kind of, and I'm gonna swear again, shit. I'm not playing tiddly-winks here. It's not a game. We're talking about tyrants. And you're throwing concern towards decorum? It's a non-issue by comparison. Sure, I get still caring about it. No real argument there. But all you're ultimately engaging in is tone policing. You're not helping anyone but trying to wring your hands about the larger issue.
Do you think that in times gone past when people went to war over tyranny that it was fair to bring up things like Ephesians 4:29? Are phrases like "sic semper tyrannis" wholesome and intended to edify others? Because at the end of the day, we're talking about bringing these people down. People talk about things like jail, but at the end of the day that's still bringing violence against them. Does that minister grace?
So where do I draw the line? Because calling for these people to get what they deserve is just as nasty as saying they're a bunch of vile cunts. But that small decorum is going to lead you to turning a blind eye, ignoring that at the end of the day one is actually worse, and yet it's justified due to their own sins and injustices.
