My problem with the whole “punch nazis” thing is:
 
A. Initiating violence on political opponents is not acceptable  
and  
B. Too often people just call anyone they don’t like a Nazi.
 
I’m a libertarian and have been called a Nazi on a few occasions.

The difference is, they fought ACTUAL Nazis. People nowadays call anyone they hate Nazis.
 
How do you explain recent protests by Proud Boys and other Far Right groups in America who wave the Confederate flag as well as the Nazi flag, does the Nazi salute and chant, “They will not replace us”?
 
How do you explain James Alex Fields?

Those are fictional characters fighting villains in a story. If a story was written about Captain America was portrayed as a hero punching an American citizen who was saying they are a nazi people would and should be pissed.

Gee, it’s almost like changing the context the act takes place in changes the outcome of said situation entirely.

That’s my point. Captain America is punching nazis in the context of the story. He is not punching nazis for just BEING a nazi, he has a reason within the story. Don’t use that as justification to punch some guy at a rally.

I dunno ‘bout you fam but these look like a couple middle class dudea just having a normal one using their free speech to say people they don’t like should be the exception to the normal rules. Y’know, a normal one. Not Nazis. Normal people.
 
Their brelavery should be defended, like the troops.

Whatever works in scandinavia does not works in other countries.  
Healthcare is not free, it’s paid by your taxes and levies, and in my case most of the time I still have to pay a part of it unless I have a good insurance and complementary.  
I can’t even currently afford a new pair of glasses, so I’m sticking with contacts.  
Dental care is even worse just like a lot of chronic illnesses.  
Not to mention the deficit the Social Security have accumulated. mainly, thanks to the abuse and high cost of practicians, and people abusing it just to get a few days off.

When I got a kidney stone this summer, I certainly appreciated not having to pay anything for my trip to the ER, the installation of a catheter and the few days I spent bedridden while I recovered (seriously, the only bill I got from the hospital was because I needed them to mail me my scan results for the followups, and it cost me 10€ all in all).  
In the US, I’m pretty sure I’d have had to fork over a few thousand dollars and fight with the insurance to get my claim accepted.

Yes but once all billionaires will have their wealth shared, everyone will be equal and have a wage and free shit few months! then suddenly, Communism!
I don’t know how many times people have told you in this thread and you just won’t listen. He’s promising things that literally the rest of the world already has.
You stated that you don’t even live in the US, so you’re likely European which means you already have free healthcare. I really don’t know why you’re opposing this, do you just want to watch Americans suffer constantly because you hate us? What country do you live in?
Finland has free public college and I believe that they’re one of the highest in terms of education and their people are generally more happy than anyone else in the world - all the Nordic countries are.
Just like if a scientific manages to prove with evidence, with verification, peer review and experimental models, particle accelerators, new technologies, that the Earth, planets and the visible universe are flat because there are dimensions we can not perceive or comprehend beyond us, hence creating a bias that the earth could be spherical yes, I will accept that. Everyone will take a seat, and say “Good job. Respect.”
Again, how many times do we have to use the Nordic countries as evidence? Bernie Sanders isn’t promising free stuff and when pressed on whether or not he was on Stephen Baron Cohen’s show, Bernie asked whether the guy was crazy.
We already know that this money has to come from somewhere and we’re tired of the repetitive “how do you pay for it” questions. Especially since you guys don’t even ask the same drivel for military campaigns or Trump’s retarded “Space Force.”
We can’t afford to give Americans healthcare that every modern nation on the planet gives to their own people but we can afford some stupid, redundant military branch called “Space Force.” First, can I just say what an insanely childish and stupid name that is?
