Anthony Sabatini, who is running for Congress in Florida's 11th district, reportedly made the remarks during June's Florida Teenage Republicans Youth Summit.
You’re free to have it, and everyone else is free to criticize it. You’re horrendously biased, that’s why you’re focusing on the statistically insignificant number of trans people who commit murder while ignoring the overwhelming majority of people who do that are white and right-win.
Even if you’re not a troll, you are not arguing in good faith. You’re supporting an agenda and ignoring facts that go against it.
Stop being such a snowflake and learn to take some criticism on your chin.
Any real man wouldn’t care what other people think of him because he’s secure in his position. Are you one of them? Or are you one of the boys complaining about voting on a digital platform?
I don’t want them extinguished. I just don’t want them to have any decision-making power. The threat of them getting a majority or the presidency is a great motivator.
And yet that is how democracies work. So if you aren’t for a democracy, what are you for? /eyeroll
edit: this is why this place will become another reddit. Many of you are still redditors at heart. You claim to be antifascists, but are in fact the fascists and don’t even know it. Hoodwinked, the lot of you.
Extinguishing an ideology is not murder. I don’t support it (I’m a moderate leftist myself), but it isn’t murder.
I never expected to have a use for the de dicto - de re distinction, but what he wants to do is eliminate leftists de dicto (that is, make it such that there are no leftists) rather than de re (that is, take everyone who is currently a leftist and make them not exist). The latter would be murder. The former is not, although it can still fuck right off.
Well, considering the astonishing number of mass shootings by trans people lately, I would say that distinction is quickly becoming lost on both sides.
Yeah. 0.11% of shootings perpetrated by Trans people is so astonishing. Meanwhile, the 54% carried put by white Christian males we can just ignore, right?
Questionable numbers. Questionable take. See, it’s easy to know who the angry trans kids are, because they announce themselves shortly before going on a shooting spree. White Christian males… like Dylan Klebold and Eric Harris? What you think anyone who is white and goes shooting is a devout Christian? That’s how brainwashed you are?
There’s been an astonishing number of mass shootings by trans people lately?
I know Marjorie Taylor Greene was trying to claim that the mass shooting that happened in Philly recently was done by a trans person, but that was proven incorrect.
Similarly for the recent Nashville shooting, there’s been no actual proof that the shooter was trans, just more conservatives saying that without anything to back it up. Almost like they have an agenda they are trying to push rather than actually caring what is true and what isn’t true before announcing it to the country.
Are there more recent incidents than these two that don’t even seem to have been committed by a trans person?

I mean what where they thinking would happen when they keep spouting “eat the rich” every five seconds. It’s not like you eat something without killing it in the process 😉
To be fair, there’s lots of people here who wouldn’t mind if the right was extinguished, so what’s the point?
Except the right is a lot more serious about it and much more willing to back it up with violence.
eh, the large number of mass shootings in America lately tell a different story with an unusually high number of perpetrators being trans people.

Let’s be real though: you’re just a sad troll.
FUN FACT: This Sabbath guy is actually a mod of lemmy.world’s ‘World News’ community. Yayyyyy.
Yes, anyone who disagrees with you must be a sad troll. Woke logic.

Okay, glad you shared with all of us your view.
You’re free to have it, and everyone else is free to criticize it. You’re horrendously biased, that’s why you’re focusing on the statistically insignificant number of trans people who commit murder while ignoring the overwhelming majority of people who do that are white and right-win.

Lol left has been doing that, so let’s not pretend left is pure and innocent in terms of violence.
Let’s go 1:1 left and right violence. I’ll go first, Dylan Roof, 2015, killed 9 and injured 1. Motivation: white supremacy/neo-nazi ideology.
Your turn.
Never said the left was pure and innocent, just that the right tends to be more violent.
Your assumption*
Wow, this sub is dogshit. I don’t support censoring people like you, but I just want to say: this so reddit.
I say stupid shit!!!
People call me out for stupid shit!
I double down on my stupid shit!!
People downvote me!
MY FREE SPEECH!!!
Not sure why you’re talking to me…
Free speech works both ways.

What are you talking about? This is my only comment on the thread, you’ve clearly mistaken me for somebody else.

We’ve been deceived, bamboozled and very possibly hornswoggled into horseshoe theory practical applications
There’s a huge difference between “I wish someone was dead” and “we need to kill some people”.
Not if you asked Reddit there isn’t.
Well, he never said either of those things, so it’s moot, no?

By extinguishing leftism? Then there would be no left without a single murder.
extinguishing people is murder

You may want to look in the mirror with that brainwashed comment.

He should know a bit better that this democracy thing doesn’t work with only a right wing?
I think that’s the idea
