A. Because I already know what communism is and don't care what you think it is. B. Because this isn't about fascism, communism, or other particular ideology. It's about people who are defending the use of actual violence to stop people from (allegedly) talking about hypothetical violence. Once you cross that line you have zero right to expect people not to do the same to you. |
And to add onto Point B, responding to Milo's event with violence will only make him more influential. It gives him more content to criticize and ridicule. As a matter of fact, his book skyrocketed on Amazon after the rioting. That gives Milo more money to continue his tour. The rioting has simply not worked and instead, backfired. Not only does it encourages Milo even more, but it also drives other people away from the left. Anyone who got mugged or whose property got damaged aren't going to side with the anti-Milo rioters.
