Our goal is to be the one stop shop for leftism here at lemmy.world! We welcome anyone with beliefs ranging from SocDemocracy to Anarchism to post, discuss, and interact with our community. We are a democratic community, and as such, welcome metaposts that seek to amend the rules through consensus. Post articles, videos, questions, analysis and more. As long as it's leftist, it's welcome here!

Although it may be justifiable from a moral perspective, a Trump assassination would likely lead to the Republican problem becoming even worse as we've seen a slight bump in the polls after the attempted assassination, and the other Republicans candidates as just as if not even more of a threat than him.

I said this the night it happened- If you kill Chancellor Hitler, you get Chancellor Göring. It's a systemic issue.

If you kill Hitler in 1930 he gets replaced, if you kill Hitler in 1945 Natzi Germany falls apart. The question is has the Republican Party become a personality cult yet?

Personality cults can find successors to the original cult founder. See: Joseph Smith and Brigham Young.

I always thought it was "Bring 'em young" and referred to pedophiles.

I guess I wasn't too far off.
