It do be like that, but sadly human greed has never once gave us a prime example of actual true to spirit communism

Ever heard of "1 bad apple spoils the bunch"? In this case one good apple either dies, or spoils. There's literally no such thing as a good cop.

Any cop you think is good? Go put them in riot gear, give them some grenade launchers, and then give them a crowd of different colored people. Id bet big money that good cop would either do what the rest of the cops around them do, (fuck up a crowd) or they would immediately quit/help the defenseless civilians who are being assaulted with tear gas and rubber bullets.

Its already a hefty fine/jail time for impersonating a member of the law

In a system where money is not a thing it would just be a creative passion project and run endlessly until it was no longer needed.

Have you ever actually been to a protest? Cops absolutely go after vandals, but going after vandals NEVER means opening fire on a square of people who are literally sitting down and chanting.

This has happened. Numerous times. Don't defend the fascists who simply get a hard on for attacking civilians.

Youre really going to post the most controversial study there is because they cherry picked data?

Please give me one actual example of where the people toppled the government and enacted change... through non-violent protesting.

Moving the goal posts yeah yeah yeah. Give me an article or proof then of 1 single thing that caused real, permanent change, like I originally asked. Not some mass "several" article.

Can you give one example where non-violence caused actual long standing change with 0 violence?

Moral persuading goes hand in hand with actual violence to show that you mean business. The moral persuasion just goes to get the common folk on your side so to try to prevent future issues. Look at Malcom x and MLK. MLK wouldn't have got nearly as far without the threat of Malcom X causing actual immediate change. Like open carry laws.

Moral persuasion is a great tool, but alone, enacted zero real change.

Not going to lie, I have no sources to back this up, it's just what I was taught in highschool.

That said, even with both violence and non- violent persuasion, racism still perpetuates within America.

Because there is karma on some instances and ways to see your total score. Is it still dumb? Absolutely, but people be people.

Some people also just repost anything to another instance if they don't like another instance. It's reposts all the way down!

Navigating software is a hell of a lot different from troubleshooting, as OP/ The image was saying.

No rat in this race just pointing it out. (But everyone i know who's my age couldn't tell you shit about computers, why they work, how they work, and how to fix even the simplest of problems)
