    Yes, because he’s a fascist actively helping his cult to take over the country and can only be stopped with violence.

    No one wants him dead to prove all killing is wrong, they want him dead because he is genocidal and a threat to the existence of everyone else. Don’t you bother trying to understand how other people think and feel, or do you think your arrogance and unwarranted sense of superiority over your opponents is what empathy is?

      “Unwarranted sense of superiority” says the person who thinks that we as a society somehow have the right to choose to end someone’s life.

        There are things that society can decide. That’s part of being a society. Sometimes it’s stupid, like men can’t wear women’s clothing. Sometimes it’s right, like you can’t be an unrepentant mass murderer and continue to live among us.

        🤣 Oh, you’re so cute when you pretend your way of thinking is an axiom inherently better than others.

        Communities DO have that right because they’re the community and they’re the ones who make the rules. There is no god or goddess dictating morality to us humans no matter how badly people want to pretend there is, there is only ourselves and nature, and we as the self-aware ones who invented morality have the right to make those choices because it’s OUR institution.

        And not yours.
