#nonviolent
Y'know, I don't really give a shit about the social consensus on correct parenting. The consensus used to be in favor of child labor and beating kids into silence. The evidence on nonviolent but firm consequences is pretty clear cut.

TL;dr: We've stated that the stops must be brief and nonviolent, so stop believing your lying eyes that they aren't.

I stand with Rep. LaMonica McIver in her struggle to shut down Delaney Hall, the inhumane ICE detention center in Newark. Join us at the nonviolent vigils there, letting the fascist regime know that we are resisting. newjerseyglobe.com/congress/mci...
McIver will return to Delaney Hall today - New Jersey Globe
Rep. LaMonica McIver (D-Newark) will return to Delaney Hall for an oversight visit this morning, her first time visiting the Newark immigrant detention

ICE’s so-called Operation Midway Blitz has led to the arrest of more than 4,000 people in the Chicago area; data shows that only 15% had criminal offenses, which are mostly comprised of minor traffic offenses, misdemeanors or nonviolent felonies.

Of course Alito, Thomas and Gorsuch dissent. They would allow trump to do anything. Anything. Storm troopers, check. Concentration camps, check. Arrests for free speech and nonviolent protests, check. What else will they allow?

John Lewis went to jail so people could have rights

He was involved with the. Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) at this time.

I wanted him to see his dream fulfilled. It still hasn’t occurred.

I have been learning Thai boxing at an mma gym so I am more familiar with the people and world (which are obvi not mostly like Andrew Tate). I will say that mma at least has the violence visible. A lot of nonviolent sports (gymnastic cough) are very violent

The best things I learned this year came from the following:

Reading “Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents” and “Velvet Rage”

Watching “Nonviolent Communication” by Marshall Rosenberg

Up til now
Been nonviolent
But I killed a man
Tonight

Was just
A simple drug deal—
Can’t get by
Without my ice

Went from buying
Party favors
To running
For my life

Din’t mean to shoot
A Cartel boss
The blowback
Won’t be nice

That is…
If they can catch me.
But I’m fast
And love the night

I have no doubt my presence at nonviolent rallies and protests as well as social media alone has me with a file.

I don’t know why I’m so jaw-droppingly astonished that the UK government appears to just be letting nonviolent, pro-Palestine actionists STARVE TO DEATH instead of listening to them and the public, but here we are.
The British state has used every method they can to isolate and break the spirits of the 8 prisoners who stand with Palestine.

They are now close to dying & the British state doesn't care.

Irish people know hunger strikes. We know British oppression.
We know colonialism.

Stand up, take Action 🇵🇸

The way trans activists are routinely demonised in the UK is really wild. You can engage the most basic of democratic, nonviolent forms of protest and transphobes respond as if the world is collapsing and trans activists are to blame. There is no form of trans activism that is acceptable to them.

Ah. Voordat ik het net als afgelopen jaar vergeet: Even een kleine herinnering wiens geboorte wij aanstaande avond, nacht en morgen gaan vieren. In de wellicht voor sommigen te hedendaagse, maar toch zo mooi heldere en niet mis te verstane woorden van @johnfugelsang.bsky.social. Gezegende kerst!

Agreed. But we CANNOT wait for midterms, they will destroy so many more lives before then.
Please consider joining RefuseFascism.org in FLOODING THE STREETS of Washington DC NOW in sustained nonviolent protest demanding the removal NOW of the fascist Trump regime.

We're glad this powerful piece is drawing way more attention to how dubious some of these oft-invoked tropes from Chenoweth's writings are.

For example, most folks taking these at face value probably aren't aware that their views on anti-Nazi resistance amid the Holocaust are...not good.

every photograh in a textbook or historical work, every painting, and virtually every description of the event described as the "storming of the winter palace" comes from the morning dress rehearsal of a 1920 reenactment of the nonviolent 1917 seizure of the winter palace from kerensky

American’t has shown for the last 5-6 decades that it will accept anything without any type of meaningful uprising that damages kleptocracy. This includes nonviolent compelling means such as widespread general strikes.

The Book of Mormon is about nonviolent protest against archonic systems!!!

"3.5% rule" "60% of nonviolent protests succeed"

You may have heard these cited as fact. But they stem from a single dubious source.

In the first in a series @thefreeradical.org debunks these, showing how they're propaganda to erase the power of militant, riotous revolt and peddle passive protest:
Liberation is a Riot, Part 1: Debunking the Sanitized Nonviolence Myth
Based on shoddy research, bad history and outright lies, status quo propaganda portrays a sanitized version of ‘nonviolent’ protest as the only option, to damaging effect. It’s time to debunk it, and ...

Krassensteins!!! Keep on keeping on. Those of us who know you know you’re nonviolent the violence is the regime and all their actions and we common folk all know it merry Christmas and happy Hanukkah.

I’ve worked closely with and deeply respect the team at Resilient Uprising. They’re training grassroots leaders in nonviolent resistance. They’re €4,200 short to make it happen, including a Kenya scholarship. If you can, please chip in: tinyurl.com/supporteduca...

A nonviolent, fascinating, but still a “firearms in America related story.”

Nothing bad happens, but skip it if you don’t want to read about guns.

It starts with trying to legally and ethically dispose of a gun.

Mocking is one of the few nonviolent ways to get to a narcissist

If the Herald wants to be Fox News or a News Ltd tabloid that’s their board’s choice but there are still standards. Disagreement with policies and political positions is fine but blaming violence on people with explicitly nonviolent kaupapa who made public statements condemning the violence is sick.

portugal had the rare nonviolent one. but that was the military, civil resistance, anti colonial movements, and international isolation. except for nato, they were fine with portugal under salazar, lol. founding member!
