It's a reminder, more to the point, is it a slur though?
If you are fine with denying someone's existence I am sure you can take whatever is coming to you from very people fighting against you.
> ...incitement of violence
I would disagree with the 'incitement of violence', but to be fair, I don't blame them either, I would have said the same as well.
Calling for people to be killed is never OK. Defending people who call for others to be killed is not OK.
Maybe don't deny the existence of people and perhaps you won't get those responses?
You're constantly implying that they deserve it with sentences like "Maybe don't deny the existence of people and perhaps you won't get those responses?".
I'm telling you that's being a huge dick because nobody deserves to be told that they should be killed, even if they are massive assholes themselves. And now you're trying to weasel-word your way out of it without admitting that those tweets are wrong, which sure doesn't make it seem like you disagree with them.
You can say that in response to any hateful tweet. Racism? "tweets don't kill you". Openly advocating for genocide? "tweets don't kill you". Claiming pineapple is a perfectly valid pizza topping? "tweets don't kill you".
