I believe if everyone who was against the current oligarchy started placing guillotine stickers everywhere, like you might for a favorite band, people would feel less isolated in their distaste for the current system.
And in an ideal world those who the guillotines are for might realize just how much they are in the minority.
Most peoples’ first step isn’t lynching. This serves as a symbol for what is to come if they don’t stop their incessant greed. They should be afraid.
So you’re OK with someone putting a guillotine on your lawn if they disagree with you?
Because that’s what you’re advocating.
Again, tell me how you’ve never read a word about the French Revolution.
We aren’t talking about people that don’t like the same flavor of ice cream we do. We’re talking about people activing seeking to harm us or the people we love in various ways. And who are currently succeeding in doing so.
You’re arguing in bad faith by painting with a mega broad brush.
It’s not a disagreement, they are killing and raping children, starving people, killing millions in wars, destroying the habitability of the planet, etc.
They will not stop until they are arrested or dead, and I’ve never seen them get arrested.
Edit: the to they
It’s this ☝️
We literally saw two American citizens executed by ICE and there has been zero accountability.
They shot Alex Pretti in the back of the head for protecting an American citizen and no one is in jail.
People on here complaining about guillotine stickers are detached from the current reality.
Yup. We are being warned that there will be no accountability, even for the most villainous of acts, unless we FORCE there to be.
Our system of checks and balances has definitively failed. Now what?
I mean, if I was murdering innocent people, poisoning others, preventing people from accessing medicine for easily treatable diseases, and raping children with the express backing of the government, I’d hope for the love of God somebody put a guillotine on my lawn with full intent to use it.
To answer your question succinctly: Yes.
Spoiler alert: The correct answer to the paradox of tolerance is specifically NOT unlimited tolerance.

i think people exaggerate. i don’t think they really want political violence, but i could be wrong.
edit: i mean, if they really mean it then we have a lot more progress to cover as far as becoming the utopia that most people want. please don’t misconstrue my point. we should want to go forward not backward as it sometimes seems.
There is already a ton of political violence occurring.
Of course there is. But we must do our parts to try and end it. Idk how though, I am new to politics but I know enough to know what’s right and wrong, imo.
The correct answer to someone who will not stop violence is to violently end them.
No, it’s not pretty. No, it’s not comfortable. No, it’s not easy to do so while retaining the optics of the moral high ground. Yet that is the only answer that actually works.
