FosterMolasses@leminal.space 1 week agoProblem is people don’t want to out of fear of the police
Is this not the point of the whole thing lol
That’s like saying in 1939 “I would resist harder if not for the Nazi officers… guess I’ll comply a few more years.”

Exactly. It’s the crux of the issue. Peaceful protests should work, and sometimes do; however, there is always the ability of the authorities to just… ignore because they have various police forces to maintain the status quo (maintain order).
Then what? What is the next course of action? Voting didn’t work, peaceful protests didn’t work… what next? If reforming the current system hasn’t worked for the last century and more, what is the alternative?
