My greatest hope is that nobody can enact such suffering upon others, and that nobody should feel they must.

I get what you mean, but at the same time this is like jumping someone from behind, beating them while they're down, and then as they get back up for a swing going "woah woah can't we all just get along?"

I thought we were saying what we hoped for, not what we expect or find just?

The people I hope to see drawn and quartered are the bourgeoisie. I prefer that working class liberals be reeducated.

Look, I get the hope, but nah. After four hundred years of unbroken bullshit perpetuated against my people, you're smoking rocks if you think getback in blood isn't mandatory.
