It is not true that nobody wants violence. There are far too many who want violence and who are given the means and liberty to inflict it on others, including kidnapping, torture, murder and even genocide. Not only historically, but currently and ongoing.
I agree some people want violence. The problem is you are describing the people in charge. Usually they are trying to placate (well at least inside the country) but now there are the ones broadly inflicting it.
How do you avoid that? You can’t and they have taken over the means to do it and with the law, the rights to do so.
Yes, the sociopath, narcissist and billionaires have taken over. There is no more democracy. There is no more rule of law. They do what they want to accumulate more wealth and power and deprive, torture, terrorize and exterminate others as they please, because that’s what they like to do and there is no way to stop them. They have their cults of personality. They have their minions do the violent dirty work for them.
The only way to avoid it is an extremely broadly based rejection of the status quo and promotion of morality and respect for human rights and dignity. There is probably no way, at this point, to end the corruption peacefully. Possibly no way at all. The means of oppression and control are increasingly powerful.

And what do you do to those sociopaths, narcissists, and billionaires? Talk to them to death? Your words have no meaning to them. You can’t expect empathy from sociopaths. That’s literally in the definition of the word.

No, there isn’t. We were past that about 10-20 years ago.
But that’s the good violence, I think he is talking about the bad violence.
