If protesting can get you thirty years in jail, just remember, the most ominous phrase a man can utter: "In for a penny, in for a pound."

Applies likewise to running for office, protesting at a parent-teacher conference, citizen journalists investigating election fraud, and any other sundry activities the regime has outlawed on penalty of lifelong imprisonment.

In for a penny, in for a pound.

All I learned from Jan 6th is that if you are going to do it, as OP said indirectly, is kill every enemy you encounter. If you are not willing to do that, don't bother starting it.

30 years in jail for protesting...sheer arbitrariness, an important aspect of a dictatorship

People choose comfort over "crossing the line". We are taught that violence is abhorrent and should never be used as a tactic. Meanwhile if you don't pay taxes and refuse to comply with court proceedings, violence will be used to bring you to heel.

It's a fucking joke honestly.

Further more most kids and newer generations are taught to forfeit their own right to self defense, selling it to the state, with the assumption the state will never use violence to coerce others. And then when the state does just that, those same people cry that voting and non violent means will somehow make the state using violence stop ... looking at you New York with the recent Staten Island migrant crisis. How fucking stupid does one have to be to believe this? Either that or incredibly naive or ignorant.

I like that you're still afraid to say what you actually mean. Continue shit posting and doing nothing.

Maybe you're reading meaning into it thats not there. You must not know me very well. I'm clearly a pacifist.

Theres obviously no other reason anyone would suggest or imply something other than fear.

And I'm obviously not implying anything. It means what it says on the tin.

I think you might just be retarded is all. Pity that.

Why would they choose violence when the supermarket has such delicious groceries??!!
