MODERATORS
While I understand that you actually wanted to ask about a specific theory, it did not come out very well.
The neo-nazis are everywhere, getting more and more in the open, and it's getting very scary for many people.
So I don't question why they buried you with downvotes.
I wish there was an easy solution to this problem, and I worry a lot about what is to come.
I don't understand why it did not come across well, as I was expanding on the paradox I already agreed with. You don't need to answer, just expressing thoughts since the message I intended to convey did not land.
Did asking about the death penalty from the opposition's standpoint instead of a proponent asking to compromise with just a few executions make it seem like I was disagreeing with death penalty opponents?
I used that example because I am personally opposed to the death penalty for that reason. No, I don't want to compromise on the death penalty any more than I want to tolerate intolerance because both allow for worse and worse actions from the evil side.
It's just a touchy subject right now, and it helps explaining yourself as much as possible before going into theory.

Or something like that
Oh, I always associate those kind of intros with someone 'just asking questions'. Reminds me of 'not a racist, but...'
Dammed if you do, dammed if you don't I guess.
Damned either way indeed. I think your original question was clear and people getting angry about it either have poor reading comprehension or critical thinking. Explaining yourself as much as possible before asking an innocent question is an undue burden that discourages people from learning more and is ultimately an ineffective defense against people who view others uncharitably by default.
There is a very easy solution to the problem but it requires the cuntservatives to kick the 'freedom caucus' to the curb.
Which won't happen.
There is also a very hard solution that we needed to employ in Germany a few years back.
If the right doesn't take the easy solution, we will have no choice but to take the hard.
I worry about the hard solution not being as straightforward as it used to be.
If the richest support the far right, it's going to be one hell of a war.
Possibly, but I'd at least hope that some of the military wouldn't support a fascist dictator. I mean its no guarantee but its still a hope.
