    If you can’t say directly, then you don’t have a position. If you feel the need to attack someone rather than engage, then you are not acting in good faith. “If you don’t know then you’re dumb” is a fairly narcissistic take.

    And you’d rather beat that dead horse than any point I make.

    This is you being unwilling to engage. “It’s obvious and the problem is you for not knowing it already”.

      You don’t seem to understand the concept of defense. I’ve already stated “fascists.” If that isn’t good enough for you, frankly I don’t give a damn. Do you expect me to have a list of names of people to attack? I don’t have one because that isn’t defense. Do you think the people being kidnapped off America’s streets everyday know the names and faces of the masked fascists shitting on their humanity? Do you think the victims of the Nazis knew the names of the men lining them up for extermination? It doesn’t matter who they are, only their violent intentions. All I know is that I’m willing to defend myself and others if I have the chance. And I’ll almost certainly die, and probably nobody will care. I’m ok with that.

      Your question is stupid, pointless, and assumes that I think I’m some kind of badass so why aren’t I killing all the bad people? I’m not an assassin. The position you advocate is that of a quisling. I don’t owe you anything. Why should anyone engage with your useless, impotent, give-up-and-do-nothing rhetoric?

      So what’s you plan, huh? Cmon, post it on a public forum because an online stranger said so.
