+Someone told me about the talk I didn’t attend: Lina’s talk, that one opinion was had that speaking about violence begets violence
+
+I love that you started talking about this – it was one of the most memorable for me this week
+
+In my judgment of the confusion about Lina’s approach to violence, what was memorable was the fear in the room. (“Can I trust the path of thought she is leaning on?”) . Interesting that it expanded the language and it pokaed at our sense of comraderie.
+
+The fear of touching upon certain subjects was in the reactions she received upon her talk
+
+I appreciated her attempts to stir the conversation on sensitive topics
+
+Denial of violence is also a kind of violence.
+
+The cancel-culture – I can sympathize with to a certain extent (when it put an end to abuse of power) – but there is violence about committing one mistake that can take you out of the public circuit
+
+In the group conversation, B. mentioned inability to form alliances across differences, I remembered conversations with my right-wing friends, where I tell them "this is a lunacy what this politician is doing", my friends agree, but they also say "but they are also doing all this for that…"
+
+The right wing is more of a messy unity
+
+The right wing is less ambitious, relies on less theory and segmentation
