Ah, to deliver yourself to the small-g god of violence is to have lost the war even before you “won” it.
The Bolsheviks knocked out the nominally believing Czar of Russia. They went for violence.
Should we become a second set of Bolsheviks? What will the victory look like? Will we be able to stop exalting the sword once its place has passed?
Throughout history the only way to truly defeat various evil “isms” is through some form of warfare. I never stated the methods, so knock it off with the silly holier than thou reference to the Bolsheviks.
