Are you purposefully being obtuse? Yes, the mild way you’re phrasing this now, after you e backpedalled, is not extreme. What yous aid earlier: > [@Identity, politics, and the in-fighting of the left](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/identity-politics-and-the-in-fighting-of-the-left/843199/495): > > I’m taking about the forces that have shaped society for generations. That’s not the poor, or minorities, or immigrants. That’s the fatcats - billionaires and corporate CEOs. Using bigotry to manipulate and maintain their power and control. > > I want them to be afraid - so afraid that they embrace progressive policies because they come to believe the alternative is the guillotine. That means decent society needs to see them for what they are - the enemies of decency. At least until our society is significantly remade for the better. Absolutely was. I’ve explained the difference multiple times. If you’re still not interested in engaging, I’m confident it’s _not_ because I’ve failed to clearly state my position. I’ll repeat my initial statement: DemonTree was not unreasonable for calling your initial, quite extreme, statement extreme. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/luigi-mangione-something-something-morality-something-something-billionaires/1019285)._
