Comment on Do political assassinations generally help or harm the cause of the person that was assassinated?
Bye@lemmy.world 10 months agoWell then, when the assassin is doing so in order to preserve some status quo, they win.
Example: MLK. Killing him did a great job of preventing a very very very charismatic leader from bringing white and black people together against their corporate overlords.
Another example is the infiltration and sabotage of OWS.
