You can’t even speak frankly here. I came to Lemmy because I was tired of being censored by Reddit, but it seems like this place is just as restrictive on speech as Reddit was.

People, if we are going to talk about systemic change for a better world, violence has to be a tool in the toolbox.

    If we are going to talk about change, we should absolutely talk about it, discuss it, vote on candidates instituting it. Violence is the instant death of talk, discussion, and the democratic process.

      sounds like what a lawful good sucker would say.

      violence is the beginning of a wonderful conversation if you’re serious about change. if you’re a naive sucker that thinks that YOUR generation will be the one that finally does it through democracy, then lol. just lol.

      i believe in democracy. we just need to eliminate about 10% of the voters that keep the wrong institutions in power.

      show me how it will change any other way in time to avoid the dystopia at our doorstep.
