    The process is the same one that has underpinned basically every large scale societal change; you offer a peaceful path to a better world, with the understanding that if the peaceful path is rejected, violence will be what remains.

      MLK and Malcolm X didn’t live in a fascist dictatorship. Everything is futile now. The time for progressive change in America is over for the foreseeable future. People need to get that into their heads.
