1 in 5 Americans think violence may solve U.S. divisions, poll finds - Lemmy.World

What a stupid question.

Undoubtedly, violence would solve America’s divisions- but is it the best way to do so? The real questions are, how long would that take, who would ultimately be the losers, and would it even be “America” when it all ends?

How would it solve divisions? Wouldn’t it just heighten them?
It worked during the French Revolution, and now they have some of the strongest labor rights in the world.
There has been quite some history between the revolution and the current labor rights… specifically five changes in political system including four republics and two empires. The first republic was probably less ideal than you imagine.
