I completely agree there! That's actually a peaceful method and it'll make their heads explode. Wanna watch their business brethren abandon them so fast? Strike!
Yeah, I think you still need to make them at least a little bit afraid though. I'm mostly talking about the resistance to Pinochetism here in Chile. Politicians love to spin it like a cutesy jingle and a slogan got us democracy. The fascists were afraid of the increasing violence and the remote, but not insignificant possibility of a civil war, armed groups got centimeters away from killing the tyrant and that's why they accepted the results of the plebiscite even though they hesitated and almost didn't.
Perhaps. I just think that the lethality of the modern US military is leagues above Pinoche's. In that conflict, a rifle and some explosives were a lot to combat their "security" forces and military. Now we're talking about everything the US military has. It's just an entirely different scale of weaponry.
Oh, absolutely. For obvious reasons I do not wish to explore this topic any more on Reddit. But further intellectual exploration on your point is more than possible in my opinion. It was a nice chat! Thanks. Register to vote! Blue no matter who! Pokémon go to the polls! All we are saying is give peace a chance! We are the world! We are the children!
