Quote:Explain to me how the hell it's someone's fault if unsavory people become their fans?
What does this have to do with the normalization of particular fascist tropes?
Quote:How is it that person's fault if what they say or stand for gets perverted?
You mean people like Hitler? What are you trying to say here?
Quote:The actual violence comes from BLM and Antifa.
Obsess over BLM and "antifa" all you want, the evidence doesn't show this:
Quote:In a report released last week, the Escalating Terrorism Problem in the United States, CSIS analyzes 25 years of domestic terrorism incidents and finds that the majority of attacks and plots have come from the far right.
The report says “the majority of all terrorist incidents in the United States since 1994, and the total number of rightwing attacks and plots has grown significantly during the past six years”, with the far right launching two-thirds of attacks and plots in 2019, and 90% of those in 2020.
The report adds: “Far-right terrorism has significantly outpaced terrorism from other types of perpetrators.” The second most significant source of attacks and plots in the US has been “religious extremists”, almost all “Salafi jihadists inspired by the Islamic State and al-Qaida”.
The report shows the far left has been an increasingly negligible source of attacks since the mid 2000s.

Easy — you expressed yourself poorly.
Quote:...and planting seeds into impressionable minds of a warped vision of America that simply doesn't exist.
Actually it's the Pledge, which young children are compelled to recite daily, which portrays a USA which doesn't exist. University students, on the other hand, are introduced to different historical ideas and given the critical tools to assess them.
Quote:No other ideology falls into that category.
Any ideology which attempts to overthrow a sitting government through force runs the risk of causing widespread casualties. Armed revolution, pretty much by definition, occurs in societies characterized by exploitation and repression where conflict is easily triggered. And tribalism, which isn't an ideology, resulted in the death of as many as a million Rwandans in
just a few months without any "communist" inspiration.
