Post had nothing to do with murder or violence. It is clear who reddit serves.

    The number of peaceful revolutions we can unfortunately count on one hand. We can strive for to -but we have to be realistic

    However there also has to be a plan. Simply overthrowing the existing rule allows chaos & someone worse to assume power

      The old rule has already been overthrown. By Trump, far right white Christian nationalists, and silicon valley. Unfortunately, it’s being replaced with something way worse.

        yea, like what is currently happening is a “non-violent” coup. They used anger, mass disinformation and propaganda.

          Still non violent. As fucked as it is, there has been very little violence. Maybe some crazies at protests. Compare that to other revolutions it’s almost nothing.

        No one said that. As the others pointed out, I’m saying have a plan.

        The go-to example is the French Revolution. There was no plan for after they eliminated the “bad guys,” and they ended up executing mostly non-rich folk. Saw a stat elsewhere that it may have been as few as 20% of victims were the rich.

        Do we really want 80% of the people hurt by a revolution to be the common folk? If that’s what you wanted you might as well stick with the current status quo. You’re getting it.

        I’m not going to argue further with you as the others have already done so well enough. I am only saying: have a plan, or things very well could go even worse
