I am not saying he should not be criticized or even held legally liable for actions. Merely that, you know, fire bombing peoples homes whose actions you disagree with is bad thing.

Sure, it's bad in a vacuum. I think people notice the decades long pattern (the Sacklers, etc) and just know that if some rich dude causes a million of people to lose jobs and live in poverty (or straight up die) nothing will happen to the dude.

Dysfunctional political systems tend to break the states monopoly on violence.

I don’t disagree. It is why a functional and fair (as much as possible) system must be in place.

Unfortunately, I don't see that happening any time soon, and more and more people feel the same. There's no faith left to be had in the justice system anymore after Epstein, Kissinger, etc.

We live in a system that threatens to invade the Hague to protect its war criminals, not a system that exists to prosecute evil-doërs.

So why is nobody committing violence against Trump for starting a literal war?

No, because even TALKING about doing anything to the ACTUALLY EVIL people of this world will get your ass wrecked.
