You are reading too much into it. Nature is indeed a never ending battle but there is honor in that battle. Homeostasis is a natural law of all ordered systems. Failure to obey this law results in the destruction of the system. Simple as that. Antifa have upset the homeostasis of America, they will thus be purged so the balance can return.

I absolutely adhere to the Gaia Hypothesis.

Mercury? Dead. Venus? Dead. Mars? Dead.

There's only one living & breathing planet.

That was a great novel. Written in 1947, I think.

Earth Abides is a 1949 post-apocalyptic science fiction novel by American writer George R. Stewart. The novel tells the story of the fall of civilization from deadly disease and the emergence of a new culture with simpler tools.

Anthropomorphizing.

Homeostasis is a natural law of all ordered systems.

An emergent property, not a priori.

I mean, I don't think we actually disagree; everyone here thinks the rioters are acting far (far, far) below the standards of civilized behavior we set for our society as a whole (and moreover indicative of broader problems with societal subcultures that tenuously coexist within the larger whole where these "values"--and much worse--are the norm).

On with the purging already!

Indeed.
