Edit: Also, blaming the Civil war Jim Crow laws and the KKK is kinda like blaming a woman for people being mad at someone for killing a rapist who tries to rape them.

You know what nonviolent resistance gets a rape victim?  It gets them raped.

You know what nonviolent resistance gets a slave?  A whipping.

Non violent resistance only really works if the people you are resisting give a shit about you.

I mean hell since WW2 has already been brought up, how well did non violent resistance help the Jews in WW2?


Pacisfism is nothing but a philosphy of the well off.  It's easy to be a pacisfist if your a middle class white dude in America or some other similar country, cause people care about you and few people wanna mess up your shit. 

It's a bit different if you're living in africa, and have the general choice of sending men out for food who will generally be killed or women out for food who will be raped, because your great great great great great grandfather was part of the wrong group that hasn't existed for generations.

Fighting is bad. Just ask anyone from central Africa how letting an angry bad guy "who will gain power but will go away after enough non-violent protests are given" run around for awhile gets the populace.
