Post had nothing to do with murder or violence. It is clear who reddit serves.

We’re allowed to discuss all forms of revolution, so long as they are ineffective.
So if you want to know how to stage a successful revolution, consider what you’re not allowed to say as the starting point. And take a look at how the CIA overthrows governments- it ain’t peaceful.
-
The number of peaceful revolutions we can unfortunately count on one hand. We can strive for to -but we have to be realistic
However there also has to be a plan. Simply overthrowing the existing rule allows chaos & someone worse to assume power
-
The old rule has already been overthrown. By Trump, far right white Christian nationalists, and silicon valley. Unfortunately, it's being replaced with something way worse.
-
yea, like what is currently happening is a "non-violent" coup. They used anger, mass disinformation and propaganda.
-
Russ voight literally said their coup would be as bloodless as democrats allowed
-
well, i guess that meant it would be completely bloodless.
-
-
Still non violent. As fucked as it is, there has been very little violence. Maybe some crazies at protests. Compare that to other revolutions it's almost nothing.
-
I would rather have the violence. Maybe then there would be movement to stop it.
-
yes but that wouldn't be civil and would degrade the integrity of the procedures, so, you know, un-american.

I am not sure I agree that the old rule was replaced. Before, the oligarchs ruled from the shadows by controlling political campaign finances and lobbyists. But now, the oligarchs are so powerful they are ruling directly. The country is still heading in the same direction (relentless growth of power disparity between the rich and power) just at a quicker pace.
FDR was the last US president that fought for the working class. Every President since Reagan has overseen policies that have weakened the working class and transfered power to the rich. Republicans were far more aggressive about it, but liberals still did it at a slower rate.

‘We can’t overthrow Hitler, because someone worse could come in to take his place.’
-
That's not what they said though
-
Same logic.
-
No, they just said there needs to be a plan. It's not the same logic at all.
-
Ok. I guess evil can be permitted to run rampant while we work out a plan.
-
Well then, by that logic, let's just nuke the entire planet today! Argue in good faith please.
-
I am arguing in good faith. You think should be permitted to continue what he’s doing until a plan is presented for what we do after he’s stopped?
-
Where did I say that? No you're using hyperbole, that's not in good faith. No one said let him run wild with no repercussions, they are saying at least have a plan, it could be developed as things go, but just at least let's have some organization and direction.

Not only that, but without a plan you won't even be able to get close to overthrowing any half-competent regime.
-
so you're saying there's a chance?
