refusing to respect the law in private is still civil disobedience. I wouldn't say that it's as effective, but it is still civil disobedience.
like this television tax thing in the uk. if everybody just stops paying it, the system would still fold even if they don't go out in the streets talking about it.
I feel like this post has devolved into nomenclature. My intent was not to tut tut people for using the wrong word, it was to say that Civil Disobedience is actually quite powerful, and we can use it to enact change at the government level.
yeah but that's not what you said. you tried to correct people's grammar without bothering to look up the grammar that you were correcting first, so this thread is about grammar because that's the thread you made
