I'm Danish and lars kragh andersen is a bit of a grey zone. He obviously goes over the line, he tried to put GPS trackers on the cars of ministers. He "stalks" their families, and dox their children online. He gave an interview on how he'd ignore people carrying a kilo gram of weed when he was a cop because he doesn't agree with the "war on drugs". On the flip-side, he's sort of right. I assume that putting a GPS tra…

This is interesting and all but is ultimately just an aside. Are the law enforcement actions on display here legal in Denmark? If not, surely there's prison sentences in store for anyone involved. Right?

> that's what activist have to do to shake people That's also the line most terrorist groups use. Its not exactly wrong i suppose. 9/11 did get Americans to think about the middle east a lot more.

>A successful case might be Luigi Mangione. Sorry, but how was that murder successful? Did it achieve the effect that everyone is getting cheaper healthcare now? OR, on the contrary, it only achieved that CEOs are now getting more anonymity and private security, while the plebs are getting more invasive law enforcement tracking like Palantir and Flock shoved up their ass to prevent them from doing something like that…

How would be the US now without Luigi Mangione? Would you have cheaper healthcare? Would Palantir or Flock disappear?

2 out of 3 for "bombed to shit". I wouldn't call that "working". I'm not sure if Iran's regime has the staying power, but Hamas sure doesn't seem to be in a good shape lately.

> but Hamas sure doesn't seem to be in a good shape lately. And who do you see on track to displace Hamas? After years and years of conflict and being "bombed to shit", they're as entrenched as ever while their enemy declines much faster. Israel is getting to a point where it has no friends left in the world, where the average European youth thinks nuking Israel and turning into a glass parking lot would probably be…

Your arguments are self-contradictory. You say force is great, but only for Hamas - not for Israel.

A youth who thinks Israel should be genocided doesn’t care about genocide, so why hate Israel?

The hate in Europe is driven primarily by an influx of people who were hating Jews anyway, and who naively think that the hatred won’t backfire on them. Once you start promoting racism it comes for everyone.

doxxing and/or stalking the kids (minors) of the person you disagree with is still kind of a d*ck move though

The public was already on Luigi Mangione's side in theory.

In practice however he didn't inspire further revolutionary action by the public, because they were pacified by memes. And that's why he's a failure.

I would much prefer a society where all homeowners and cops don't carry guns and cops were fired for illegal raids.

That’s not the real world. Criminals will always find a way to get guns no matter the amount of gun control you impose, so I’d rather have law abiding citizens be armed as well

It is the real world in many places. "Criminals" are not a homogenous group. Petty criminals will not usually be making the effort to get a gun if getting a gun is inconvenient. Some high level criminals will find ways to get guns but the number of criminals with guns will be much lower with gun controls.
