    You’re wrong, and your advocation of violence is abhorrent. Democracy does indeed work and your calls for the destruction of society over your power fantasy are awful and misplaced.

      How is he “advocating” for violence? Where is his call to action?? Stop being so allergic to uncomfortable conversations. He is right. Look at all the big triumphs over tyranny that have happened throughout history, they were achieved through violence. Do you think America voted their way out of British rule? Do you think Ukraine can vote Russia out of their country?

        In context, this argument makes no sense, because he is advocating violence against random wealthy people in the US.

              No, I believe that violence, if employed, should be collective and carried with a strategic intention. Anything less is reactionary and invites defeat.
