    There is a lot conditions added to that, of course when conflict is put in your face, you might to use violence. But then again, negotiation is untapped power,
    Correction now I think about, remembering another thread about famous & except the fight for USAn Black People Rights were successful non-violent activist leaders, when violence is on them & all around them- Nelson Mandela, MLK Jr., Mr. Gandhi & Malcom X.
    Checkmate, bro,

    It just not as bad as you say it is, when peaceful activism successfully pushes out the two-strongest militaries of the world, at three-different times, in The 20th Century. There are even more successful & peaceful activist leaders & their campaigns.

      I’m not sure we’re focused on the same thing here or I simply don’t understand your point.

      • Come-on, man, you sounding like a Capitalist person deny facts.
        Everyone knows how much those famous Peaceful Activist Leaders, & those that followed their leader working for their rights, were killed & threatened with violence, spied on & jailed-imprisoned all the time. Yet they never used violence, even Mr. Mandela chose be Peaceful.
