Honestly i feel like most of lemmy is left-leaning at least from what i've seen

Nonviolent action has accomplished many things, it is just that nowdays the ruling class is mostly desensitized to protest. If you want to change society through nonviolent action, your action needs to convince others to support you. You need to convice the ruling class and all who help them to give in to your demands.

Modern day peaceful protests do nothing because they dont have any credibility. The rich rightfully believe that they can ignore you and nothing else will happen. Nonviolent protests are just one way to send a message, and I think the most important thing that this ceo killing has done for us is that it sent a message.

There isnt a secret group of evil lizard people planning out society. The evil in our society comes from the ways our oppressive systems shape people.

Our culture and systems believe(or at least act like) it is perfectly fine for a police officer/rich person to do murder/social murder.

So many people base their morals on what is legal/what the state penalizes, meaning if a police officer's or ceo's actions result in the death of innocent people, it is perfectly okay because they never get in any real trouble. This normalization of violent/oppressive acts done by the state and the rich means that more police (and more rich people) are going to feel okay doing shitty things.

I don't think this speaks to how pathetic Americans are, but instead to how much the rich have us under their thumb.

We need to start working against atomization if we want things to get better, and I think this is/was a really good way to bring people together. Talk to the uninformed people in your life, be the healthy opposition to their beliefs that many people dont have. Make them understand who their real enemies are.

It is in the upper classes best interest that we close ourselves off, entering echochambers as we talk about how evil it is for someone to disagree with our own beliefs.

It just feels too perfect. Its probably a copycat, could be a faked arrest though. If it is a copycat there is a pretty high chance law enforcement just won't care, and will treat him as if he was the assassin

"Three fired cartridge cases alongside three unfired cartridges were found at the scene. The words "delay", "deny", and "depose" were written on the cases. "Depose" was inscribed on a casing from a round fired into Thompson, while "delay" was marked on an unfired cartridge ejected as the shooter racked the pistol, possibly to clear a jam or intentionally discard the live round."
