No Kings Protest, Minnesota

This is incredible.

It would be more incredible if those people were armed and swarming the studios of radical fascist media and beating the hell out of pro-trumo.talking heads.

Standing around waving signs and cheerleading shitty chants does nothing and will be forgotten in a week.

History has overwhelming shown that non-violence is more successful than violence. You do you.
The more I learn about history, the more I learn that violence changed things 99% of the time since before the Roman Empire.
Into the exact same regime with a new color it paint?
Can you give one example where non-violence caused actual long standing change with 0 violence?

Norway leaving the union with Sweden in 1905 is famously one of the very few times secession was done non-violently. But to be fair there was large political pressure from Swedish socal democrats that urged the king not to go to war and the Sweds and Norwegians liked each other and remained good friends and allies afterwards.

Maybe if both parties start to work on the relationship and get friendly right away, then you could maybe have a peaceful resolution in 50 to 100 years time.
