    That’s what we’re trying to do. The assholes convincing everyone it isn’t necessary bcs they can just keep voting for the people who made the problem to begin with and that will somehow solve the problem are far more numerous and supported by the entire propaganda machine of the wealthiest empire in history and the personal social clout of every person profiting from the problem.

    Revolution requires class consciousness and organization. You’re encouraging adventurism which is counterproductive.

      Be so fr rn. Violent revolution is such a silly idea in a country that allows corporations to legally kill people and a govt that will drone strike you. 1) Half this country doesn’t vote. 2) The Black Panthers weren’t a threat to the corpos because they had guns, they were a threat because the improved the material conditions of their communities without the need of the government. Hasan has never said to not help out locally. I’d love to see an clip if he has.

        Anything but violent revolution is a silly idea in a country under the dictatorship of the bourgeoisie…

            12 ga shotguns and bird shot. Wrist rocket slingshots. Guerilla tactics.

            What’s your plan to make the people with all the wealth and power give up without forcing you into a violent confrontation anyway, in the incredibly unlikely event you overcome their propaganda power and get a majority to vote for stripping their wealth and power?

              Before or after mass incarcerations of political prisoners? You’re not going to use Guerulla tactics to change the hearts and minds of the liberals across the country. Other counties have taken steps to prevent unregulated exploitation. They’re not perfect but it’s a step in the right direction.

        Recently, in France, high school studient have revolted. The gouv sent them riot police, and stun grenades have made some of this kids loose an eye or a hand. In the next days, a riot policeman got caught too far from his line by some studients, who used ultra violence on him, kicking his face many times. That is how the gouv decided to remove the dangerous stun grenades.

        As long as violence is the only way that works, violence is the way to use (unfortunately).

        If oppression could stop when we say please, their would not be social violences.
