    Iceland became independent largely without violence.

    And, um… yeah that’s about it.

      It’s a lot easier when you find a land that is actually uninhabited. Anyone who has played Civ knows that it is hard to come by late-game.

  Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable.

  Think of all the people that die needlessly due to their insurance claim denials. That is mass murder in the name of profit.

    It’s a mistake to think they even consider the people dying by their decisions. It doesn’t cross their minds, their only focus is the money they’re making.

      Doesn’t make the people any less dead. Society has let them get away with mass murder for too long. Let’s hope that this is the beginning of a change.

  MFers will be like, “I’m a pacifist, it’s easy, if I ever see a dangerous situation, I just move to safety and call the cops,” that’s not pacifism, you’re just bragging about being privileged enough to have others do violence on your behalf.

  Violent revolutionaries create peaceful nations.

  Peaceful nations create liberal cowards.

  Liberal cowards create oppressive nations.

  Oppressive nations create violent revolutionaries.

  Violent revolutionaries also create fascist dictatorships, so let’s try and stop the liberal cowards from ruining everything in the first place.
