Kill all dissidents? Seems to me your more like Manning than you realize.

Dismissing anyone because their views don't coincide with yours is a defence of the insecure. And who is to say who's right? I'm sure we're all certain our views are correct, otherwise we wouldn't hold to them. You might think it's absurd to argue that racism might be correct, but many people might think it just as absurd to argue that global warming isn't as clear-cut as it is being presented as, or that feminism has gone too far. At some point in time, many things have seemed absurd. Lots of people have been sure of the correctness of their thought. Lots of people have been wrong. Perhaps some humility would do us all some good?
