History has overwhelmingly shown that non-violence is more successful than violence. You do you.
I don’t think that’s true. There were violent riots accompanying every major social change in at least recent history.
And famously, it took an entire fucking war to end slavery in the United States.
Well... how's that going?

That's also setting aside people that are effectively slaves to low wages, unable to do anything but work with no chance for upward mobility.
