Violence really, really fucking sucks.

It may be necessary, but if there's any other option you should look to that first. If it legitimately comes to violence a lot of innocent people are going to suffer in a big way.

There were other options. I think those other options failed at this point in time.

Why haven't i seen this side by side with Nazis? Or him put in the rally or along side Hitler etc?

These all seem like simple edits

Peace as a choice is only possible when the option of violence exists.

Yeah, I feel like violence is evangelized online in odd ways.

The class that suffers the most in violent uprisings is the lowest class. By orders of magnitude. For every member of the bourgeois that is taken down, tens or hundred or thousands of every day people are injured or killed.

But it's already happening. They're already suffering.
