Trump voters aren't informed enough to stop worshipping a fascist pedophile, this isn't going to sway them either. The only thing that still might are grocery and gas prices, and I'm not counting on that either.

If you fight fascism with more fascism, fascism is guaranteed to win.
Maybe get the man's name right if you want to talk about the circumstances of his death. (for the record, I do believe he was silenced)
What the fuck do you mean by the future of warfare? That's the most mask-off way of saying The Forever War is the endgoal itself. Why the fuck are we allowing these assholes to make so much money on murder?
Let's call it documentation. Archiving, really.
Colonial Belgium and Imperial Japan come to mind too.
You want to remove religion? Won't you be just another oppressive asshole then? What's the difference between a regime that forces their religion onto people and a regime that forbids people from following their religion? Both are extremely authoritarian, you're just pretending it's for a more noble cause, while a religious person would say they're doing it for the more noble cause. You're no different.
Russia never had the upper hand, man
Pretending it's religion that's enabling these evils distracts from the real evil in the room. Religion is merely a distraction, a tool to achieve the goal. The goal is always control and power. By placing the focus on religion, you're saying that if we 'solve' religious extremism (this is a very racist train of thought that I can get into if you'd like), we'll get rid of these terrible actors, while you and I and everybody with an inkling of critical thinking skills know damn well that if it wasn't religion they'd use something else as that tool. Shared trauma is a big one that's used often.
The irony is palpable
Doubling down on your ignorance like a true redditor
I agree there's no peaceful way to get rid of fascism, but proportionality is very important. I'm as angry at the Trump cult as the next guy, but you have to understand they're victims of fascism as well. Not in equal part, but it's not like they deserve death for being brainwashed.
