People are okay with violence when democratic means (if first past the post even counts) do not solve their problems.

People being okay with violence when they lose the democratic vote is a problem. The system isn't perfect, but again, if you're resorting to violence instead of campaigning for change, society either has to crush you, or we're all going to anarchy

Unfortunately some people are.

this is true for just about everything, there is always some as outliers for whatever but isn’t true in general. there are people I believe are rotten to the core but would never wish any violence against them

This has to be one of the most naive comments I've read on this site.

Theres example after example of people in history being totally fine with violence against human beings.

No need to look at history. We have plenty of contemporary examples.

we used to sacrifice lambs to appease the gods but we don’t do that anymore.

Yet we live in a very violent world, some people are definitely ok with it.

Or I missed a hint and you’re dehumanizing them?
