[yellow, a finger up, looking smug]
The answer to oppression is NEVER violence
Turn the other cheek
Pacifism always wins
You could earn rights by asking nicely instead

[yellow, proudly showing us a huge book]
Don’t believe me?
Open a history book!

[yellow, looking frustrated as they are shuffling through the book’s pages]
Ok so…
Uhm…
Not this page…
Wait…
The next one…
Awkward…
Another…
Yeah but…
For sure this time…

[yellow, sweating, protecting their book, a hand raised towards us]
Can you stop looking?
You’re being rude
That’s my book

    Your just a coward too scared to actually nut up and pick up a gun or destroy billionaire assets, nothing more.

      I’ve always wondered why like 20% of Lemmy users are so agro. We can speak to one another like reasonable people.

        We tried that and you idiots are still going, "what it we protest. " like a Bunch of spineless tits.

        if protesting worked, Donald would have been stopped by now. If you won’t fight for yourselves, Y’all deserve the yoke.

          I’m more so talking about you in particular and people like you on Lemmy who seem so needlessly aggressive. We can speak to one another like civil adults.

            can you guess who i was talking about, im sure you can.

            also “civil” more like spineless, the aggression is a necessity if you don’t want to be subjugated, like the meme says, open a history book and see what’s happened to those who didn’t resist without at least the Coercion of violence looming.

              I’m not saying aggression is never necessary but bro we’re just talking on Lemmy, chill. Go have a soda or a good fap or something.

                im not as interested in those passtime as you might be, don’t get snarky. as i said the time for protesting has long passed as its proved whole ineffective to the federal government and vandalism of donalds allies asset books is the next step, but iv seen little in the way of that.

                  Alright you’re talking about the US. I personally stay in three or four different countries across three continents so sometimes I lose track. I mean you’re free to hit the streets and see what happens but as someone whose actually seen revolutions first hand, it’s not quite time. Too many people are too comfortable. Maybe when there’s no food or water or electricity they’ll be motivated.

                  Literally anything to relax honestly, it’s not like I’m on here professing my love for fascism so we can just talk to one another like normal people.

                    to be fair the UK just hit someone with a terrorism charge for spray painting a building soooo, not just the usa.

                    your the one thats repeating yourself right now, are you sure you don’t need something to drink?
