Does anyone actually advocate for this?

You mean… apart from about nine out of every ten liberals?

The fascists

I mean of course I was being hyperbolic but I’ve had several people tell me something equivalent to pretty much like this. “Using violence against fascists is stooping to their level” is another classic.

There’s been a push for decades that everyone should be respectful and peaceful and not bother anyone when they protest in any way. The entire country forgetting how we’ve accomplished almost every major societal change.
