I keep coming back around to it in therapy, but what are we supposed to do?

Nobody is coming to save us.

All I can conclude is all we have is the use of violence to stop their violence against us.

You don't have a peaceful revolution. You don't have a turn-the-cheek revolution. There's no such thing as a nonviolent revolution.

I mean, yea. All those years of hearing being peaceful is what makes change was just propaganda.

What happened to Alex Pretti was pretty violent.

Nobody is coming to save you.

The system of capitalism is quiet violence every day, a pervasive exploitation of the working class and marginalized social groups. To fight back against it requires violence because this system was created and is enforced by violence. I'll never hand-wring about somebody suggesting this obvious route of struggle against the systems of oppression, this form of self defense, when we watch social murder and direct violence committed by the capitalist state happen every day; nor should you.
