While true, political power IS the problem.
I know, right? These people really saw dominators oppressing people at the barrel of a gun and thought, “guess I should be holding the gun”. That’s not a new insight, it’s the same thing every oppressor says. They also will all tell you, “I am the special person who knows what’s best for you and can be trusted with this gun.” Again, nothing new here.
Well it does no really. The people with the guns often don’t have much political power. They just follow what other people tell them. From the other side of the barrel it doesn’t seem like that though.
Is there the occasional political power behind a gun? Sure, but commonly not
Name a single effective non violent revolution.
The united states, every four years.
The only reason that particular transfer of power is not called a revolution is because it isn’t violent. It’s kind of in the definition of the word. Peaceful transfers of power exist though.
That isn’t a revolution that’s an election.
They don’t, power comes from violence. Please effectively exert authority without using violence, id love an example.
What counts as violence? Does a parent disciplining their child by taking their dessert away count as violence?
Yes
behavior involving physical force intended to hurt, damage, or kill someone or something.
Do you propose, then, that everyone should be allowed to do as they please with absolutely zero rules?
Point to where I added my opinion.
