      But mass downvoting is a form of brigading, just look it up. And now you’re adding insults to the mix. Well done.

      Again, I personally could not care less. But by behaving like this, you’re not encouraging people to share their thoughts (unless of course they agree with you, that’s different!). And you’re certainly not creating an “uplifting” community.

      To be clear, I don’t care about your downvotes. I DO care that you’re excusing the inexcusable and helping to normalize political violence.

        No, all of these people are telling you that you aren’t contributing to the discussion in a meaningful way.

        These people are slowly but surely destroying the fabric of society and you’re sitting here clutching your pearls about murder? Shut the fuck up.

          you aren’t contributing to the discussion in a meaningful way.

          Seriously? What “discussion”? There is no discussion. Everybody agrees with you except me. And yet still that’s not enough, apparently. And what have you “contributed” exactly - except to say exactly the same thing that everybody else here is saying? Do you really come to a forum just to read people who already agree with you, and then write their own lines back to them? What’s the point? Validation? I don’t get it.

          Shut the fuck up.

          Just to be clear to anybody else here who wants a response: this was an exception. I will not reply to comments with insults, “shut the fuck up”, "everybody thinks you are [insert insult here]’ (is that supposed to be an argument?) etc etc. I’m not at primary school any more and I’ve got better things to do. What bothers me is apology for murder. So far there’s been about 3% serious good-faith attempts to justify it, the rest has been empty anger and insults. I’m happy to reply to the former. The latter I ignore.

            I’ve contributed to the conversation by pointing out you’re a part of the problem, because you are. This limp dicked thinking is the reason liberals in the U.S. have been shifting further and further right these past 45+ years.

            Had more been done to stop these people sooner, sure - we may have the luxury of not calling for people to die. We are running out of time, globally - and yes people like you need to get out of the way.
