     @alter_kaker @nando161 exactly.

     The subtle confusion between self-defense and vengeance is the difference between liberation and dictatorship. It's a confusion that authoritarians have exploited for generations... one we can trace right back to the reactionary politics of post-revolutionary France, and the use of the guillotine against the very same revolutionaries who fought the monarchy in the first place.

     Vengeance is fundamentally a reactionary impulse.

     No, it's pretty clearly a lesson from history. I don't understand what's so hard to understand the difference between fighting and vengeance
