Well yeah, if I support violence against people who support violence, then I’m also a supporter of violence just by taking that position, and would then become a target based on my own statement. It’s sort of like the Paradox of Tolerance I guess. You can’t tolerate people who are intolerant, though in the process you yourself have to become intolerant of intolerance… but for good reasons (as opposed to people who are intolerant for bad reasons).
I love when you talk paradox of tolerance. Gets me all twitterpated.
