    A righty will just say it was action, directives, legislative action.

    But the point is that modern right-wing mouthpieces can effectively toe the line of hate speech versus incitement. Dog-whistles and stochastic rhetoric that indirectly radicalizes others.

    When this is all said and done, we’re going to need to overhaul our education for critical-thinking to spot this and perhaps broaden the definition of inciting violence or clamp down on hate speech. Though I look at Germany that has stricter laws and we see AfD neo-nazis rising there too albeit to a lesser extent?

      We’re gonna need to overhaul a lot of stuff including education.

      To the point where I don’t think repairing this piece of shit country is worth it.
