That's the entire point.

I just don't know what the endgame is, other than avoiding a discourse in favor of erasing certain perspectives from society.

But I've seen through the subtle manipulations of the word "violence" (i.e. "silence is violence", or "hate speech is violence") how people wield the emotional energy assigned to a word to rally up the masses for a cause. But it comes at the expense of words having clear and concise meaning, and ultimately at the expense of people being able to have coherent debates.

I just don't know where that story ends.
