I don’t really know if I’d consider the French revolution very succesful, considering the fact that the Bourbon dynasty was restored after only 16 years.
I’d say that being distruptive is what we should be discussing about. Strikes or boycotts, when organized well, can be examples of non-violent can actually work, while holding a sign in a park doesn’t do anything.
And now in June, we celebrate the queer community’s liberation, which totally happened by walking up to a politician and asking “hey can we please not get assaulted and thrown into prison or a mental ward for existing? 🥺”, to which the politician responded “oh, I’ve spent my entire life thinking you guys were perverted mentally ill sinners that should be drawn and quartered, but sure! ☺️”
Oh, but it’s use of force and not violence when we do it!
Also I’d say that peaceful and violent aren’t binary. Like, there’s standing somewhere holding signs without being distruptive, then there’s civil disobedience like blocking traffic without being actually violent, then there’s protests where protestors will use violence to defend themselves if they have to without actively seeking to engage in violent acts, and then there’s straight up rioting, where people go out their way to attack people, or smash windows or burn cars and shit.
And, of course, it varies from person to person. If there’s protest X happening, one person could think of is as violent (or call it violent as a way of propaganda) while one person wouldn’t.
my fucking ass 👅🥾
Bolsheviks, Stonewall riots, suffragettes, all famously peaceful movements that got their rights by staying on their knees and asking nicely.
Apparently it’s a common myth that fish don’t feel pain. I think it’s because they show pain differently than mammals (for example, if a salmon let down an ear-shattering shierk when caught, I think we’d think differently) and people don’t want to think about it.
Hey kiddo, you wanna try some piracy?
Damn. In other news, I’m radicalized now.
Where we pour bleach on food that has been discarded to make sure that someone who is hungry can’t eat it?
What the fuck? Seriously?
For writers.
ad, silence, brand
Oh, phew.
The hymen isn’t an indicator at all in the first place.
This surely won’t turn out to decide that POC are more likely to kill…
Oh. At what point does harmless tourism become mass tourism?
