  • If two parties are at odds with one another, and one on them is willing to use violence and the other isn’t, the violent party wins.

    Non violence works when people care about what you’re going through. If the right people know and care they’ll come in and do violence for you to make it stop. Or at least verifiably threaten violence. But violence is happening whether you did it or not.

    Nazis don’t give a shit about you, they’re eager for violence. They want to exterminate entire classes of people. Non violence does not work on Nazis, we’ve already seen this play out once before.

    I’ve always found this to be such a strange hill to die on. I remember standing in line for 10-20 minutes at cash registers and having to guess at which line would be the fastest. Self check out lines might extend in to the produce section but I’ve never stood in one for longer than 5 minutes.
