    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.

              Forgive me for assuming you considered violence to be bad.

              Since we’ve presupposed that all authority must in some way stem from the threat of violence, a hatred for violence cannot exist without a hatred for authority.

                    You have not quoted me once, you’ve projected your feelings into my statements and yet cannot explain which one you’re deriving your flawed opinion of me from.

                  This thread started because you asked someone to name a single nonviolent revolution. Such a thing cannot possibly exist, especially considering your inexplicably broad definition of that word.

                  You cannot seriously equate shooting someone with taking a child’s dessert away, simply because you consider them both to be violence. Considering this I’m a bit confused as to your point.

                    That was my point.

                    Point to where I ever said or implied such a thing, please you don’t actually have a point without a quote you can reference.
