    Such as? Because from my experience and the history that has been taught to me, the only solution is violence. Unless you can cite examples otherwise. I’m not aware of a fascist state that was voted out of power.

      You’re still not understanding that you can do all of that without dehumanizing people. And you’ve moved the goalpost since the conversation was originally about Trump supporters, not the leadership. They’re two very different groups of people.

      Do you happen to know what was the most effective method of interrogating Nazi PoWs? It wasn’t beating them or treating them like animals. It was giving them good food and a warm bed and being friendly to them. Treating them like humans.

      It was showing them that the propaganda the Nazi government had been feeding them about the Allies being evil heartless monsters was a lie.
