At this point, there isnβt much left to use aside from political violence.
And if you look through the history of effective political change away from fascism and totalitarianism, itβs pretty much 0% peaceful protest and 100% violent revolution.
Letβs start with removing members of ICE from the gene pool. I advocate castration as a long-term option of eliminating any genetic influence of fascism on future generations (low IQ, genetic propensity for authoritarianism, genetic propensity for sociopathy, etc.), but others may be in favour of methods that can more permanently prevent these fascists from terrorizing existing citizens.
Is this ragebait?
Not in the least.
It's just odd to me that you are advocating for genetic control over others who want to use genetic control over others...
Sorry, you can fuck right off with that "let's tolerate the intolerant" crap.
I'm not advocating on tolerating the intolerant. I'm simply not pro-eugenics...
You're the one that brought up eugenics and gene control. Eugenics has been so watered down that any act of violence can be labeled eugenics now.
The original comment was talking about forcibly removing genes from the gene pool for a "better humanity" so that card was already on the table
Right??? I feel like I'm taking crazy pills here that no one else is noticing the problem with that comment.
Eh. No different than ordering pedophiles to be chemically castrated. We're not talking about innocent people that have committed no crime here.
Or another way to view it, it's like taking kids away from bad abusive parents. If you take away the kids of an entire ethnic or cultural group, then you're doing genocide. If you just take kids away from child abusers, it's not genocide.
This is really in the spirit of the Darwin Awards, where idiots remove themselves from the gene pool. Not every mention of removing genes from the gene pool is an evil eugenics plot.
I'm just saying, that person didn't bring it up, rekibas did
Where the fucking hell did you get that out of the words they actually wrote? Fascism is not a genetically unique race of people; it's an ideology.
