    Please stop using that phrase. It’s now used by everyone and their grandmother to promote their little evil extremist shtick.

    We want gays and LGBT imprisoned or executed! If you don’t make my peaceful revolution possible you make a violent revolution inevitable!

    Edit: the paragraph above is an paraphrased example of how right wing extremists talk. I’ve hung around in conservative areas on reddit, and people quite literally talk like that.

      Let’s say we stop using that phrase. Everyone and their grandmother with evil extremist shticks keep using it.

      … how is that better?

      You do know that Stonewall was a riot right? LGBT rights were not achieved by hanging some rainbow flags from a truck and drinking champagne in a topless outfit

      i don’t understand your second paragraph at all. sounds like you don’t know what peaceful means.

        My second paragraph was an example of how tight wing extremists use that very same phease.

        Its always "you have to adopt MY extremist and violent policies which I think are really peaceful, or I’ll threaten with a violent revolution
