Ugh. I agree with this. But I don't, at the same time. I'm of the opinion that people need to expire. There was a time where we could make the world a better place by working with people, but some just shouldn't exist. Some people just can't be reasoned with.
Both are correct we need a multilateral approach to win this. A peaceful movement is good but it’s a lot stronger if it’s backed by an adjacent movement that has some threat of force. A user above mentioned the civil rights movement with MLK being backed up by the Panthers. This was a great example because if you look at any successful revolution the approach was multilateral. The abolition movement was also multilateral
No I'm with you there - but it's hard to discuss that stuff without getting banned; and you can do that stuff while still casting a vote every now and then. I've stirred up a lot of drama here by encouraging the use of that tool - this thread is stuffed with mouth-foaming Trump progandists, so proceed with caution. And grab some popcorn - it's a shitshow, but it's a show!
