You think the removal of one system of government to institute another (even if that system is as little of a system as possible), along with a radical redistribution of wealth, happens without violence?
You think it happens with violence? Look what the french revolution led to. 100 more years of imperial rule and the most deadly war in European history. Look at what the Russian revolution led to, the USSR. The Chinese revolution.
Now look at how anarchist societies/groups emerged in history. Cooperation and mutual aid. The violence was for the most part defensive.
The only people who think violence is the answer, are the ones with superficial understanding of history who are suffering from Duning Kruger effect. Violent revolutions always lead to authoritarian’s grabbing power and kick starting oppressive regimes.
Today is the parent of tomorrow. The present casts it’s shadow far into the future. (…) Revolution that divests itself of ethical values thereby lays the foundation of injustice, deceit, and oppression for the future society. The means used to prepare the future become it’s cornerstone. - Emma Goldberg
