I am interested in learning which american peaceful protests have been successful that were not backed by force in the past 10 years?
Did I not just link the final order booting the National Guard out of Portland, Oregon? Portland protested, non-violently, for weeks against having the National Guard there. BECAUSE the protests were non-violent, the judge ordered them out.
It’s right in front of you. It’s not even something I am claiming, it’s literally what the judge said. All you had to do was read the first paragraph, man. I even quoted the text, but you couldn’t even be bothered with that.
Same in Chicago. The National Guard presence was halted by a TRO (temporary restraining order) and then when the govt lost that on appeal, Trump withdrew the NG troops there and redeployed them to New Orleans. Here’s the full order:
I know it’s killing you to even acknowledge its existence, but the proof is already there. The National Guard is out of both Chicago and Portland BECAUSE of peaceful protests.
Do you think that’s over? What a dumb take. It’s like watching your enemy do a tactical retreat and thinking you’ve won the war. Portland is literally filled with ICE today. Do you think it worked? Seriously.
It’s the equivalent of saying “all we needed to do was protest and elect FDR”. And ignoring all of the workers that armed themselves and took over factory floors by force. You have horse blinders on so you can still believe the lie of a whitewashed and fabricated version of MLK. I’m sure you also don’t believe that Malcolm X and the Black Panthers had any positive impact during the civil rights movement.
