I stand by what I said, I don’t support any group using weapons against another group. Yes, it’s quite natural for any group to defend themselves against an attack, but that doesn’t excuse the immoral corruption of killing others, whatever the reason for it. That’s my opinion, but I stand by it. And anyone who disagrees and wishes instead to dwell in a state of violence, is free to do so.
OP can have the spare bathroom and storage room. The kitchen, bedrooms, and central living space are exclusively ours. No cooking, utilities, or guests allowed, and OP isn’t allowed to leave through any door, but if they ask nicely they can talk from the storage room doorway.
Good luck with that. Unless you have a passcode and the gate keeper lets you in, you can’t get within a mile of my home. Not by my doing, my family’s estate is on private land that is also a nature preserve, mostly closed to public entrance. We own hundreds of acres and most of it is private, so it’s a long long hike up a winding driveway to our estate - better pack a lunch with you.
I disagree. Lead and sulfur will be the facsists weapon of choice and it already is. The real cure of fascim is intelligence. Educated people are humane people. Kindness is the hallmark of a well educated person.
Yeah that’s how we beat the Nazis in ww2. We invested in their education infrastructure.
You can prevent facism from taking root with a good education sure, but once colonialism or imperialism or facism are present, violence is exceptionally good at getting rid of it.

Not related to the Israel–Palestine conflict, but I’m curious about your perspective here:
Is this an absolute? For example, let’s say a group starts attacking another group, are they allowed to defend themselves with proportional force?
Again, I’m not trying to get your views on any conflict in particular. I just like talking about these things and broadening my beliefs :)

Ok, then I’ll just move into your house. But we can reach across the divide to promote peace and learning or whatever afterwards.

I’ll just break the gate.
Yeah sure you will, you infantile dipwad. The guards will break your head before you have time to know they even are on your sorry ass.
Whoah whoah whoah, that’s violence! Let’s talk about this like intelligent civilized people, over tea in my new living room.
That’s, frankly, dumb.
Lead and sulfur is the only cure for fascism.
