The OP post was talking about "the others" wanting genocide. Whenever I talk with the liked of you, you damn near always talk about how we should "kill all the nazis" preemptively. That is what I'm talking about. Maybe we should just not kill anybody and go back to talking with eachother? I know, crazy thought.

with the liked of you

Let me remind you, because it has briefly escaped your reality, that you don't know me and can't possibly know every person that you come across online to make such broad and absurd generalizations. And that you're ignoring our past interactions trying to "talk" and reason with those we disagree with only to come out the other end exhausted by the hordes that don't want to listen. You can include MAGAs, force-birthers, conspiracy theorists, antivaxxers, homobhobes, and many other subtypes of conservatives in that very long list. I've gotten old talking to these people.

I don't even wish death on the people who would rather see me beaten to death. But if I've ever said anything about murdering anybody, it has been done in jest with plenty of tongue in cheek and in a space where I know it's not gonna be taken seriously besides "the likes of you" who think mindless talking is the answer.

So yeah, crazy thoughts, but not from me.
