71. My question that you replied to
Sun Oct 27, 2024, 08:26 PM
Oct 2024

was if it helps anything to respond with violent rhetoric. In my view (not much agreed with), it's better condemn it, to make a note of what's being said but not to fall into one upping it and with the more of the same or even more pointed stuff like talking about being ready to kill someone. I'm not sure people who do actually think about what they're saying and how it can escalate into real life action.
