I wonder whether we have actual numbers to support this. And not just anectodal, or single individual events. But on a larger global scale, also investigating whether alternative measures have been taken and whether they suceeded. And then putting them into relation to each other, carefully considering potential limitations in the interpretability as well as implications, before forming conclusions regarding any recommendations of optimal action.

Or, put simply, is violence really the best way to deal with oppression?

This is also sharing some overlap with protesting methods. And I am not quite sure whether we have a definitive answer to that.

What a detached-from-reality take. I'm not saying that appealing to the moral sense of the oppressors usually works (it doesn't) but when a group of people successfully gains their freedom, it's usually by appealing to that moral sense. After all, if the oppressor wasn't stronger than the oppressed, there probably wouldn't have been oppression in the first place.
