Fascists – the ones you might meet on the street – are scared, broken people who need help and love. They are looking for control over a future that makes them feel powerless and meaningless. Fascism is a symptom. You can kill fascists for a month but if you don’t address the causes there will always be more.
That doesn’t mean to tolerate fascism or fascists. But the rhetoric of hatred and violence is counterproductive.
