I raised "re-educating" these domestic terrorists and their supporters here, last year, and was shut down because of the ... political incorrectness? of that term or concept.

Call it re-education or "de-programming" as Bash does here...same thing. It's whatever works to completely change people's outlooks from cultish support of their god king and belief in the supremacy of their race, to an embrace of all of life in its diversity and righteousness.

Maybe they all just need to die out.

Would be interesting to learn from Rwanda, Cambodia, hell - Germany! - really extreme cases.

growing up with these false ideologies, the hate, the racism, and those kids will perpetuate it and many will act upon it, just like their parents did.

The only way to avoid that is through better education in public schools, promote reading, make sure that "no child is left behind" when it comes to education...I know that was a term used by Bush with no real action, but the term is good, action should come to make it true.

about education. And so scary to think of the past COVID year when many students fell between the cracks...being home-schooled to hate, I fear.

These liars must be made accountable and lawsuits can take care of that. This is not about free speech, this is about lying, lies that pushed an insurrection forward on January 6, 2021.

should be a last resort - it's always lose-lose in some way (huge attorney bills).

But with this crowd? Definitely.

I read that the orange menace was served with Rep. Thompson's lawsuit over drump's role in the insurrection / riot.

Good, keep the mf busy! Bleed him dry as he has everyone else, for, as we all know - everything he touches...
