And does “purge” mean violence to you?
In this context yes.
Yes, you are auth-left.
No I'm not.
I am a liberal, but that’s all I am going to say about myself.
No, you're just a troll on a 1 day old account.

Did you just link to a comment I didn’t make?
Lemmy has shitty links, and yours got buried by downvotes. Read the third one down:
- "So true. There must be no forgiveness, no tolerance, no acceptance. Conservatives must be purged from this planet. "
The delusions of auth-left never ceases to amaze me.
I'm not auth left. But thanks for the insult, it's nicer to know that I'm dealing with a literal child.
The whole "what could have stopped X" question is a loaded one. But regardless, the answer is gun control, and U.S. law should learn from modern German law:

It's crazy how even this right wing sources seems to understand that gun control is necessary and a requirement for low gun death rates, given that they admit right at the begging of the article that they have amongst the lowest death rates out there.

Total:
Germany: 1.04/capita
United States: 12.21/capita
Homicide only:
Germany: 0.06/capita
United States: 4.46/capita
If more guns & lax gun laws made us safe, we would should expect to see the opposite. Yet we don't, because anybody with half a brain understands that a tool whose purpose is to kill as easily as possible will make killing easier when it is around untrained people/people with insufficient reason to own it/people who store them poorly.
That's a 75x smaller gun homicide rate. We aren't going to get that small of a rate without gun control.
Inb4 somebody calls me a troll despite putting effort into this: fuck off
You cannot attack an ideology without attacking the people who make up that ideology. They cannot be cleanly distinguished from each other.
Quit your bullshit. Dunking on shitty beliefs does not equate to killing or hurting people like you were suggesting.
This means attacking the people.
Good job moving the goal posts. First it was purging. Now it's being made out to be social pariahs. Pick one, and quit equating scorn with violence.
You are mocking a call to violence in which there is none. They're saying conservatism (the belief, the ideology) needs to die.
Conservatives should be openly mocked and ridiculed for their cruelty and violence. They should be laughed out of office.
I'm am not /u/HandBreadedTools. Go ask them.
Right, it’s easy to just make up your mind about something (with no evidence)
"I don't trust X" != "I've made up my mind"
That is not at all what they are saying.
Its like posting pictures of dogs in a cat sub, it just doesnt belong.
But the moment somebody posts a picture of a cat* wearing a nazi arm band, it gets deleted, despite quite a lot of cats* supporting/being complacent of nazis.
Trans people are a part of the LGBTQ+, so this is nothing new. It's just a continuation or a long history of violence against the LGBTQ+

Most people disagree with conservative politics, and that goes doubly so for the fediverse. The voting system is more or less a agree/disagree system. And you are posting this to bolster Trump's image.
Couple those together and it's pretty straightforward why this got downvoted.
