    I’m pretty sure if you, like, locked the doors at cpac and filled the rooms with carbon monoxide so they all died, you’d accomplish quite a lot. It wouldn’t fix everything, but a lot of evil doers would be gone.

      I don’t know, I’m not so sure. The problems are systemic, not necessarily a result of a few people of poor moral character just doing evil things. So, even if you eliminate all the evil-doers, because they were products of the system, new evil-doers will emerge to take their place, so long as the system remains unchanged.

        I don’t entirely disagree. However, if enough of the active evil doers were removed, it would be easier to change the system. Like, we could fund education better if we didn’t have Republicans constantly trying to gut it.

          I think that makes sense, but I think when you try to remove those people who are obstacles to change using violence, you run the risk of making them seem sympathetic to the average person. I think that can end up bolstering those people and their opposition.
