How are we supposed to live side by side with these people?

[–] tocopherol@lemmy.dbzer0.com 57 points 1 day ago

Unless those on the attacking side (MAGA) decide they don't want to murder more of us, I'm not sure we can. The first civil war was incredibly bloody and tensions between the sides never settled down fully. We are in this situation partly because there is no way to have a compromise with people that believe some of our society's members aren't human. The white supremacist view of slave owners and supporters of slavery never went away, it needs to be cut out from the root.

The question that should have been asked and answered when your first Civil War ended: you can’t. They have forfeit their right to live in America by being traitors to its constitution. Maybe after this second one, if the Left somehow wins, they’ll learn from that mistake and get rid of the remaining Right by whatever means are convenient.

What, like put them in concentration camps?

Re-education camps are what China uses. Maybe you can understand why they do that now. The alternative is to just kill them.

funny how we can find a way to hang an insurrectionist when he's an abolitionist, but we can't when he's head of the imperial project

The correct answer is to give the law teeth when it comes to abuse of authority, hate, racism, and all the other mechanisms that enable radical-right propaganda and power structures. They can keep on having garbage opinions about people "not like me", but actually following through with punching down on others needs to be severely discouraged. The rest should follow once sane ideas are given the proper room to breathe.

The law has teeth, in the protection of ruling class, not subjects. The subjects are being deathcamped.

@iopq@lemmy.world what are we going to do with all this spam?
