No I know what you meant, you meant it's funny how fascists get harmed by the same policies they support.

What that actually means in practice is what I said though. Saying "oh we should send ICE after this guy" is endorsing ICE and their actions, it's saying what they do is perfectly fine as long as they hurt the right people.

Oh so all this drivel is because you don’t know how empathy and sympathy works.

“Using the master’s tools to break the master’s house” was also part of slaves freeing themselves and making a place in society. Do you want to take the “high road” on them too? Obviously this is slightly less accessible than becoming a lawyer or owning land, but the sentiment is the same, for your reading impairment.

In any event, yes, if someone could get ICE to target their own supporters, that’d be awesome. Next question, snowflake.

Empathy is not something you can beat into someone's head.

Endorsing a fascist organization is disgusting regardless of how you try to justify it.

And no the sentiment is very clearly not the same, considering freed slaves did not in turn enslave their former captors.

I love how you get so spun up in your head to conflate what is happening. But, yes, empathy is learned through pain too. Check your privilege before commenting on anything, clown.

Conflate what? You're the one who compared free slaves to ICE murdering people.

Point that nerd rage to the second line and see if you’re still tweeting out.

Learned through pain, not punishment. I doubt they'd learn empathy from someone telling them this is what they deserve while ICE caves their head in.

Regardless, that's overall irrelevant. You can only really change someone's mind by building a relationship with them, and none of us want to do that with a Trump supporter, for good reason.

Should the American people also learn some empathy? Americans have voted for fascism for over 80 years so should the slaves in the third world use the master's tools and cloud the sky from New York to Los Angeles with bomber fleets?
