  Violence and threats of it do not improve society. Don’t normalize this Trumpian lawless behavior.

    You know what does improve society? Open, wanton violence against the lower classes by the wealthy without any repercussions whatsoever. 🙂‍↕️

    Alternatively: what he is doing is causing immense suffering on a societal level and if he stopped doing it many people would live when they would otherwise die.

    If the government is unable or unwilling to stop him, or even stop accelerating what he’s doing, then there are other options.

      If the government is unable or unwilling to stop him

      Then it’s time to vote in a new government.

      Seriously, cool it with the violence-worship

      What immense suffering is caused by LLMs?

      Are you talking about the water and energy usage? Because that is more so caused by Capitalism than it is by technology.

    Remember how healthcare denials went down for months after that United Healthcare executive was killed?

      As far as the trolley problem goes, whoever killed the guy objectively preserved more lives by doing so

    not with these piddly, passant efforts, but mass, violence has often accomplished mass civil change for the better!

    • The French Revolution (1789) — Violent overthrow of the monarchy and aristocracy dismantled feudalism and established the principle of popular sovereignty, which reverberated across Europe for a century.

    • The American Revolution (1775–1783) — Armed insurrection against British rule produced one of the first modern constitutional republics.

    • The Haitian Revolution (1791–1804) — The only successful slave revolt in history, producing the first Black republic and striking a massive blow against the Atlantic slave trade.

    • The Glorious Revolution (1688) — Though relatively brief, it involved armed invasion and overthrow of James II, producing constitutional monarchy and the English Bill of Rights.

    Viva la Revolution!

      • Taiping Rebellion (1850–1864): ~30 million deaths, mostly civilian
      • American Civil War (1861–1865): about 620,000 soldiers died; disease accounted for a very large share. Deadliest war in U.S. history. Society has arguably still not recovered.
      • Rwandan genocide / civil war context (1994): ~800,000 killed in roughly 100 days, with extreme neighbor-on-neighbor violence ("they’re eating the cats!")
      • Syrian civil war (2011–present): 300k+ civilian deaths … so far
      • Sudan civil war (2023–present): 13 million refugees, widespread hunger, health-system collapse

      What made them catastrophic?

      *Violence spread into civilian life. * This meant famine, disease, refugees, and economic ruin kill civilians disproportionately.

    You’re just confused about violence.

    It’s violent to price people out of a dignified existence.
