It actually did save many lives, because the insurance companies essentially okayed everything for a few weeks. There's many testimonials on how many people finally got surgeries or medications they've been needing.

So yeah, Luigi did literally save a bunch of people at the cost of one asshole.

Am I just bad at games???

That song is interesting.

I didn't like it too much either when playing the game because of how repetitive it got.

But then I finished the game, and months later I found myself missing it. It's kinda a sad song that doesn't really hit until it's been over for a bit. Now I listen to it every now and then.

Oh look, a gish gallop tactic in the wild! Combined with some strawmen and moving the goalposts and the sealioning from earlier. You're just a lovely can of logical fallacies and bad faith debate tactics, aren't you?

All those words just to easily be disproven by the fact that the people who beat this shitstain asshole weren't members of the government in any way or form. They weren't even cops. It was other random citizens who beat him up. Ergo, not fascism when it's literally not the government doing it, aiding it, promoting it, or even siding with the ones who beat the asshole. In fact, the government arrested those people.

Oh, and just you get it out of the way - in the video, the ones beating him up aren't promoting their own ideology, they just think the asshole is an asshole for saying bullshit. No different than beating up a drunk at a bar who's calling everyone's mom a whore. So, not terrorism. Probably why they aren't being charged with terrorism. Not that you can trust the application of UK laws anyway as intended, but even a government happy to label every but of uproar as "terrorism" these days hasn't labeled it as such.

Both can be true at the same time, Sir Gishgallop.

You can beat up an asshole who threatens to destabilize democracy just because he's an asshole spouting violent bullshit while that in itself happens to strengthen democracy, much like an angry person beating up a drunk person at the bar causing a ruckus will bring order back to the bar even if they were just beating up the drunk for also being an asshole.

They should be allowed to express their opinion until it becomes tangible and problematic for said outgroup?

Yes. Exactly. That is the fundamental basis of a free society and the legal system. The line is drawn at tangible actions and imminent threats.

Wow, imagine being the person arguing that groups like the Nazis should be allowed into power and killing others before it's time to fight back.

"Ah yes, let's let these people who want to kill and exterminate others lie their way into being able to control all the resources of the government and of course the military before we try to fight back".

You're either a massive idiot useful to such people at best, or you're arguing in bad faith hoping you'll be in the in-group so you can kill those you hate on uneven ground as a coward at worst.
