Ya know…everyone always tries to say violence isn’t the answer. It’s things like this that tells me those people are stupid. Violence is absolutely the answer.
Remember that the j6 rioters got everything they thought they wanted, and they got a pardon.
If violence doesn’t solve your problem, it’s because you aren’t using enough of it.
I think they mean violence isn’t the first thing you reach for. There’s a real problem in the world, and especially in the US, where the moment someone is even moderately upset about something they immediately start pulling weapons.
You should always attempt to negotiate and de-escalate the situation. Violence is something you should reach for only after it becomes abundantly evident that they are not prepared to meet you halfway or are just obviously corrupt, like is the case here.
But you never know, some of the officials may just be really stupid and have not thought about the project beyond the immediate benefits, and haven’t thought about/don’t know about the downside.

Honestly this isnt true we have ignored all the underlying systemic issues that put these people into pressure cookers ready to pop. Erosion of education left them unable to interpret the world beyond force fed propaganda pointing blame on those that would be allies instead of being targeted as enemies/shouldering the blame. We have never provided proper health care that could aid in reducing mental and physical trauma. We have ignored others needs for safe housing and secure food sources, which means people are stuck in fight or flight. Just to name a few common systemic issues. Sure you may see one specific moderate problem that in isolation shouldn’t create the reactions you see, but people today are like a superheated liquid just waiting for the smallest of disturbances to set them off.
Most of these people have never even been met part way because the system ensures they have no means to come to the table and ensures they are constantly pitted against each other so no class conscience can form.
I always see it like a game of tug of way. With 2 sides. there needs to be tension. If there is no pull at one of the sides then the other side just pull all the rope. These situations need a level of tension.
There’s two sides but three teams; don’t forget the centrists forever pulling for the right.

Good. Scare the fuck out of them.
The only government that works for the people is a government that is afraid of the people
I wonder how many government officials, local and state, have been paid off to ignore public input, know they aren’t getting reelected, but don’t care because they’ve gotten enough to retire.
In my county they changed tune on data centers 6 months before running for re-election and won re-election. People have short memories or never knew to begin with.
That’s evidentially the only way, since the councils just don’t care
Violence can be an effective strategy.
Let them cool data centers with the tears of the Martin Luther King Jr that white supremacists invented.
Good. You weren’t elected to fuck over your constituents
I really need to get into local government because there seems to be a lot of bribes going around and I need a new computer.
Official’s income are bribes, they don’t work for the voters, just do enough for getting reelected.
Thats just awful.
