it's weird how people don't wanna acknowledge dehumanization (which hate speech is a part of) as the beginning of a process that allows people inflict all types of evils on each other

and one of the things Hitler did that gained him support was using Jewish people, amongst others, as scapegoats for much of what was wrong in Germany

This is very true although why you Godwin'd to Hitler and not the topical American example of Trump is odd.

But I don't get how this justifies blowing up buildings.

You think the Nazis or Trump which never had majority support from the population in their rise to power would have been curbed if people blew up buildings?

You think if someone blew up on of Trump's hotels or golf courses he wouldn't have become president?
If someone blew up a National Socialism recruitment base they would have gone "Oh well hanz, guess zis is eet. Let's go become nuns instead ja?"

Pointing out that bigots are stupid and evil doesn't seem like a justification for going around blowing up buildings to me.

Reminds me of a kid throwing a brick through a window and then going "But Matt is a poopface!"

Even if Matt is a poopface, you don't throw bricks through windows. You were raised better than that.
