I don't want your uncle or anyone put in prison for expressing ideas, no
matter how gullible or stupid. I thought I made that clear. But I'd oppose
your uncle and his friends foisting this stuff on ourselves and others, and
I'd imprison them if they committed violent acts, without hesitation.
I don't think it is a matter of being related to your uncle or not. What's "blood" got to do with my "perspective", and why do you allow it to influence yours? Fascists are found in all national groups, and I oppose them all indiscriminately, neighbours and relatives included, as necessary. So should you.
